About this statute

This article defines key terms and says each state party must give the covered specialized agency the privileges and immunities set out in the standard clauses, subject to the annex and specified conditions. Specialized agencies have juridical personality and can contract, deal with property, and bring legal proceedings. Specialized agencies get immunity and several tax/customs exemptions, may move and convert funds freely, and states parties should help refund certain excise or tax amounts when possible. Specialized agencies get favorable treatment for official communications, no censorship, and the right to use codes and sealed courier bags. Representatives of members at meetings of a specialized agency get listed privileges and immunities while doing their work and traveling to and from the meeting place.
