- State
- Japan
- Signed
- 2008-12-03
- Became bound
- 2009-07-14 — by acceptance
- Between the two
- 223 days
- Treaty in force since
- 1 August 2010, in accordance with article 17(1).
- Depositary record
- United Nations Treaty Collection
Acceptance 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
- 10 in order of becoming party
- 113 states bound in total
- Dubl 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.
