Abstract

A headquarters agreement plays an important role in the law of an international organization. Although there are general principles of law on the legal status and position of international organizations, it is often necessary to specify clearly the exact parameters for the application of the principles to a particular organization. The headquarters agreement enables the organization and the host State to make provision for specific issues and problems that may arise in practice but which it may not be appropriate or sometimes possible. Although the headquarters agreement is primarily an agreement between the organization and the host State and essentially governs the relationship between the organization and the host State, it could have implications far beyond the narrow confines of the interface between the organization and host state. Keywords:headquarters agreement; host State; law of international organizations; legal status
