The Argentine Maritime Issues in International Law of the Seas and Security

IILSS 18th September 2023

Introduction
There is a significant maritime lawundrum that Argentina faces in the international law of the seas. Argentine vessels are Subject to Argentine law, but Argentine vessels sail on foreign seas and are not subject to the full range of Maritime Law of the Seas provisions. Argentine vessels are not registered with the Argentine Maritime Authority, and Argentine vessels are not subject to the jurisdiction of a Maritime Court. Argentine vessels are not subject to the enforceability of Argentine torts. Argentine vessels are not entitled to carriage under the International Convention for the Suppression of Narcotics Trafficking and the Convention on Trans-Atlantic Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora.

Argentina’s maritime laws are complex, and a lack of clarity on Argentine vessels’ subject matter and maritime status has created a number of challenges in the administration and enforcement of Argentine maritime law.

Maritime law of the seas and security
Argentina is party to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS), but its maritime laws do not conform to the full range of UNCLOS provisions. Argentina is a party to the United Nations Convention on the Prevention of Pollution from Ships (UNCOP), but its maritime laws do not conform to the full range of UNCOP provisions. Argentine maritime law does not provide for the confiscation of Argentine vessels or the enforcement of Argentine maritime law. Argentine vessels are not entitled to the protection of the International Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Crime on the High Seas (ICPC).

The Argentine Maritime Law Situation

The Argentine Maritime Law Situation is complex due to the lack of clarity on Argentina’s maritime status and subject matter. Argentine vessels are not registered with the Argentine Maritime Authority, and Argentine vessels are not subject to the jurisdiction of a Maritime Court. Argentine vessels are not entitled to carriage under the International Convention for the Suppression of Narcotics Trafficking and the Convention on Trans-Atlantic Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora. Argentine maritime law is not clearly defined, and there is no one authoritative source of guidance on Argentine maritime law.

Despite the lack of clarity, Argentine vessels are subject to Argentine law, which includes the full range of UNCLOS and UNCOP provisions. Argentine vessels are subject to the enforceability of Argentine torts, and Argentine vessels are subject to the protection of the International Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Crime on the High Seas.

There are a number of challenges facing Argentina in the administration and enforcement of Argentine maritime law. The lack of clarity on Argentine vessels’ subject matter and maritime status has created a number of difficulties in the administration and enforcement of Argentine maritime law. These difficulties include the inability to identify and assess accurately the risks associated with sailing on foreign seas, the difficulty in registering Argentine vessels with the Argentine Maritime Authority, and the difficulties in enforcing Argentine maritime law.
