List of parties to the Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907

The following tables indicate the states that are party to the various Hague Conventions of 1899 and 1907. If a state has ratified, acceded, or succeeded to one of the treaties, the year of the original ratification is indicated. An "S" indicates that a state has signed but not yet ratified a particular treaty, and a "–" indicates that the state has taken no action with respect to the treaty. Italicised states have ceased to exist with no legal successor. Dates which have been ~~struck~~ and have a "(W)" are ratifications that have been subsequently withdrawn.
