Parties and Non-Parties
As of 1 March 2022 the Convention on Migratory Species has 133 Parties (132 countries, plus the European Union). One country signed the original Convention but has yet to ratify it so is not a Party (Jamaica - annotated as "Sig" in the list below). Several countries although not Party to the Convention are Party to one or more of the Agreements and/or have signed one or more of the MOUs; these countries are annotated "AM" in the list below.
