Depositary record

United Nations Treaty Collection

What the code means is not recorded here. The depositary annotates this act P, and this site only decodes the codes it has read off a treaty page’s own column header. Rather than guess how Zambia became party, the letter is shown as the depositary wrote it — the treaty record declares its own.

Where this sits

• 7 in order of becoming party
• 30 states bound in total
• New 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.
