- State
- France
- Signed
- 1981-08-27
- Became bound
- 1982-08-06 — by approval
- Between the two
- 344 days
- Treaty in force since

- Depositary record
- United Nations Treaty Collection
Approval is not ratification. It is a distinct act under the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, and the depositary records it as such. The two are often written as though interchangeable; the record does not treat them that way, so neither does this page.
Where this sits
- 2 in order of becoming party
- 97 states bound in total
- Vien treaty adopted
Order is by the date the depositary records, and states that became bound on the same day share a position — eleven states became party to the Charter on 24 October 1945 and none of them was eleventh.
