KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Jure Imperii
Jure imperii refers to acts carried out by a state in the exercise of its sovereign authority, such as diplomatic or governmental functions. In these cases, the state is generally entitled to immunity from the jurisdiction of foreign courts.
This distinction is central to the doctrine of state immunity in international law. While states may be liable for commercial activities (jure gestionis), they are protected when performing sovereign functions under jure imperii.
