A letter (re: "Berlin (West)") accompanied the instrument of ratification (deposited 12 June 1987) of the International Convention on the Harmonization of Frontier Controls of Goods, 21 October 1982, to the effect that the convention would also apply to "Berlin (West)" with effect from the date on which it entered into force for the Federal Republic of Germany.
Dates apply to the Federal Republic of Germany.
The German Democratic Republic had acceded to the Convention on April 22, 1987, with the following declaration:
"The German Democratic Republic does not consider itself bound by the provisions of article 20, paragraphs 2 to 7 of the Convention according to which a dispute regarding the interpretation or application of the Convention not settled by negotiation shall be subject to arbitration upon the request of one of the Contracting Parties party to the dispute.
In this connection the German Democratic Republic takes the view that in each case the consent of all contracting parties to the dispute is required to settle a dispute by arbitration."
