Mine Ban Policy
The Republic of Maldives signed the Mine Ban Treaty on 1 October 1998 and ratified it on 7 September 2000, becoming a State Party on 1 March 2001. Maldives has never used, produced, imported, exported, or stockpiled antipersonnel mines, including for training purposes. Maldives has not enacted new legislation specifically to implement the Mine Ban Treaty. Maldives submitted its second Mine Ban Treaty Article 7 report on 6 April 2006 but has not submitted subsequent reports.
Maldives did not attend any Mine Ban Treaty meetings in 2010 or the first half of 2011.
Maldives is party to the Convention on Conventional Weapons and its Amended Protocol II on landmines but not Protocol V on explosive remnants of war.
