The Geneva Conventions, which were most recently revised in 1949, consist of seven individual treaties which are open to ratification or accession by any sovereign state. They are:

The four 1949 Conventions have been ratified by 196 states, including all UN member states, both UN observers (the Holy See and the State of Palestine), as well as the Cook Islands. The Protocols have been ratified by 175, 170 and 80 states respectively. In addition, Article 90 of Protocol I states that "The High Contracting Parties may at the time of signing, ratifying or acceding to the Protocol, or at any other subsequent time, declare that they recognize ipso facto and without special agreement, in relation to any other High Contracting Party accepting the same obligation, the competence of the [International Fact-Finding] Commission to enquire into allegations by such other Party, as authorized by this Article."[1] 77 states have made such a declaration.

In 1989, the PLO submitted a letter to the Swiss Federal Department of Foreign Affairs which stated in part that the State of Palestine had decided to "adhere to the Four Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949 and the two Protocols additional thereto."[30] However, the Swiss Government, which acts as the depositary for the Conventions, responded by stating that it was "not in a position to decide whether this communication can be considered as an instrument of accession" due to "the incertainty [sic] within the international community as to the existence or non-existence of a State of Palestine."[29][30] In 1990, the PLO submitted a "Memorandum on the accession of the State of Palestine to the four Geneva Conventions of 12 August 1949" to the depository and requested that the issue be reconsidered. However, the Swiss Government reiterated its prior conclusions.[31]
Following the United Nations General Assembly passing a resolution granting non-member observer state status to Palestine in November 2012, Palestine acceded to Conventions I-IV and Protocol I in April 2014.[32] In January 2015 Palestine acceded to Protocols II and III.[33]

Authority[43] Year of declaration Conflict Notes
Sahrawi Arab Democratic Republic Polisario Front 2015[44] Western Sahara conflict with Morocco Article 96.3 of Protocol I allows for an "authority representing a people engaged against a High Contracting Party in" a war of national liberation to make a unilateral declaration to apply the four Conventions and Protocol I with respect to that conflict. As a result of such a declaration, "the Conventions and this Protocol are equally binding upon all Parties to the conflict." This provision was invoked by the Polisario Front in 2015, and as of that date was the only national liberation movement to have had their declaration accepted by the international community, since in prior attempts the relevant state was not a party to Additional Protocol I (Morocco ratified the protocol in 2011).[45]

Notes

  1. ^ "S" indicates that the state has signed but has not ratified.
    "—" indicates that the state has taken no action.
  2. ^ Denmark informed the Secretary-General of the United Nations in 2003 that "Denmark's ratifications normally include the entire Kingdom of Denmark including the Faroe Islands and Greenland.”[18] No declaration excluding either of their dependent territories was made by Denmark upon ratification of any of the seven treaties.
  3. ^ The Conventions I–IV and Protocols I–III were originally extended to the Netherlands Antilles prior to its dissolution into Aruba in 1986, and Curaçao, Sint Maarten, and the Caribbean Netherlands in 2010.
