Year: 
1876
Month:

Notes: 
This 'Treaty' appears to have consisted of coordination among Germany, Great Britain, the Netherlands, Norway, Russia, and Sweden to pass similarly-worded domestic legislation that banned sealing in the Jan Mayen seal fishery east of Greenland prior to April 3rd of each year and establishing common penalties for violations of this ban. The dates used here reflect the dates legislation was passed in each country, which is treated as an 'Entry into force' date.
