KembaraXtra – Legal Terms – Pacta Tertiis Nec Nocent Nec Prosunt
Pacta tertiis nec nocent nec prosunt is a Latin principle meaning that treaties neither impose obligations nor confer rights on third states without their consent.
The doctrine protects the sovereignty and independence of states not party to a treaty.
A treaty therefore binds only the states that have agreed to it.
Exceptions generally require explicit acceptance or consent by the third state concerned.
The principle forms an important part of the law governing international treaties.
