第一編  領海  第二節  領海之界限

SECTION II. LIMITS OF THE TERRITORIAL SEA

第3條


  除本條款另有規定外,測算領海寬度之正常基線為沿海國官方承認之大比例尺海圖所標明之海岸低潮線。

Article 3


  Except where otherwise provided in these articles, the normal baseline for measuring the breadth of the territorial sea is the low-water line along the coast as marked on large-scale charts officially recognized by the coastal State.

第4條


  一、在海岸線甚為曲折之地區,或沿岸島嶼羅列密邇海岸之處,得採用以直線連接酌定各點之方法劃定測算領海寬度之基線。
  二、劃定此項基線不得與海岸一般方法相去過遠,且基線內之海面必須充分接近領陸方屬內國水域範圍。
  三、低潮高地不得作為劃定基線之起迄點,但其上建有經常高出海平面之燈塔或類似設置者,不在此限。
  四、遇有依第一項規定可適用直線基數方法之情形,關係區域內之特殊經濟利益經由長期慣例證明實在而重要者,得於確定特定基線時予以注意。
  五、一國適用直線基線辦法不得使他國領海與公海隔絕。
  六、沿海國應將此項直線基線在海圖上標明,並妥為通告周知。

Article 4


  1. In localities where the coastline is deeply indented and cut into, or if there is a fringe of islands along the coast in its immediate vicinity, the method of straight baselines joining appropriate points may be employed in drawing the baseline from which the breadth of the territorial sea is measured.
  2.The drawing of such baselines must not depart to any appreciable extent from the general direction of the coast, and the sea areas lying within the lines must be sufficiently closely linked to the land domain to be subject to the regime of internal waters.
  3.Baselines shall not be drawn to and from low-tide elevations, unless lighthouses or similar installations which are permanently above sea level have been built on them.
  4.Where the method of straight baselines is applicable under the provisions of paragraph 1, account may be taken, in determining particular baselines, of economic interests peculiar to the region concerned, the reality and the importance of which are clearly evidenced by a long usage.
  5.The system of straight baselines may not be applied by a State in such a manner as to cut off from the high seas the territorial sea of another State.
  6.The coastal State must clearly indicate straight baselines on charts, to which due publicity must be given.

第5條


  一、領海基線向陸一方之水域構成一國內國水域之一部份。
  二、依第四條劃定直線基線致使原先認為領海或公海一部份之水面劃屬內國水域時,在此項水面內應有第十四條至第二十三條所規定之無害通過權。

Article 5


  1.Waters on the landward side of the baseline of the territorial sea form part of the internal waters of the State.
  2.Where the establishment of a straight baseline in accordance with article 4 has the effect of enclosing as internal waters areas which previously had been considered as part of the territorial sea or of the high seas, a right of innocent passage, as provided in articles 14 to 23, shall exist in those waters.

第6條


  領海之外部界限為每一點與基線上最近之點距離等於領海寬度之線。

Article 6


  The outer limit of the territorial sea is the line every point of which is at a distance from the nearest point of the baseline equal to the breadth of the territorial sea.

第7條


  一、本條僅對海岸屬於一國之海灣加以規定。
  二、本條款所稱海灣指明顯之水曲,其內曲程度與入口闊度之比例使其中之水成陸地包圍狀,而不僅為海岸之彎曲處。但水曲除其面積等於或大於以連貫曲口之線為直徑畫成之平圓形者外,不得視為海灣。
  三、測定水曲面積,以水曲沿岸周圍之低潮標與連接其天然入口各端低潮標之線間之面積為準。水曲因有島嶼致曲口不止一處者,半圓形應以各口口徑長度之總和為直徑畫成之。水曲內島嶼應視為水曲水面之一部份。一併計入之。
  四、海灣天然入口各端低潮標間之距離不超過二十四浬者,得在此兩低潮標之間劃定收口線,其所圍入之水域視為內國水域。
  五、如海灣天然入口各端低潮標間之距離超過二十四浬,應在灣內劃定長度二十四浬之直線基線,並擇其可能圍入最大水面之一線。
  六、前列規定不適用於所謂歷史性海灣或採用第四條所載直線基線辦法之任何情形。

Article 7


  1.This article relates only to bays the coasts of which belong to a single State.
  2.For the purposes of these articles, a bay is a well-marked indentation whose penetration is in such proportion to the width of its mouth as to contain land-locked waters and constitute more than a mere curvature of the coast. An indentation shall not, however, be regarded as a bay unless its area is as large as, or larger than, that of the semicircle whose diameter is a line drawn across the mouth of that indentation.
  3.For the purpose of measurement, the area of an indentation is that lying between the low-water mark around the shore of the indentation and a line joining the low-water marks of its natural entrance points. Where, because of the presence of islands, an indentation has more than one mouth, the semicircle shall be drawn on a line as long as the sum total of the lengths of the lines across the different mouths. Islands within an indentation shall be included as if they were part of the water areas of the indentation.
  4. If the distance between the low-water marks of the natural entrance points of a bay does not exceed twenty-four miles, a closing line may be drawn between these two low-water marks, and the waters enclosed thereby shall be considered as internal waters.
  5.Where the distance between the low-water marks of the natural entrance points of a bay exceed twenty-four miles, a straight baseline of twenty-four miles shall be drawn within the bay in such a manner as to enclose the maximum area of water that is possible with a line of that length.
  6.The foregoing provisions shall not apply to so-called “historic” bays, or in any case where the straight baseline system provided for in article 4 is applied.

第8條


  定領海界限時,出海最遠之永久海港工程屬於整個海港系統之內者應視為構成海岸之一部份。

Article 8


  For the purpose of delimiting the territorial sea, the outermost permanent harbour works which form an integral part of the harbour system shall be regarded as forming part of the coast.

第9條


  凡通常供船舶裝卸及下錨用途之泊船處,雖全部或一部位於領海外部界限以外,仍屬領海範圍。沿海國應將此項泊船處明加界劃,並在海圖上連同其界線一併載明;此項界線應妥為通告周知。

Article 9


  Roadsteads which are normally used for the loading, unloading and anchoring of ships, and which would otherwise be situated wholly or partly outside the outer limit of the territorial sea, are included in the territorial sea. The coastal State must clearly demarcate such roadsteads and indicate them on charts together with their boundaries, to which due publicity must be given.

第10條


  一、稱島嶼者指四面圍水、露出高潮水面之天然形成之陸地。
  二、島嶼之領海依條款規定測定之。

Article 10


  1.An island is a naturally formed area of land, surrounded by water, which is above water at high tide.
  2.The territorial sea of an island is measured in accordance with the provisions of these articles.

第11條


  一、稱低潮高地者謂低潮時四面圍水但露出水面而於高潮時淹沒之天然形成之陸地。低潮高地之全部或一部份位於距大陸或島嶼不超過領海寬度之處者,其低潮線得作為測算領海寬度之基線。
  二、低潮高地全部位於距大陸或島嶼超過領海寬度之處者,其本身無領海。

Article 11


  1.A low-tide elevation is a naturally formed area of land which is surrounded by and above water at low tide but submerged at high tide. Where a low-tide elevation is situated wholly or partly at a distance not exceeding the breadth of the territorial sea from the mainland or an island, the low-water line on that elevation may be used as the baseline for measuring the breadth of the territorial sea.
  2.Where a low-tide elevation is wholly situated at a distance exceeding the breadth of the territorial sea from the mainland or an island, it has no territorial sea of its own.

第12條


  一、兩國海岸相向或相鄰者,除彼此另有協議外,均無權將本國領海擴展至每一點均與測算各該國領海寬度之基線上最近各點距離相等之中央線以外。但如因歷史上權利或其他特殊情況而須以異於本項規定之方法劃定兩國領海之界限,本項規定不適用之。
  二、相同兩國或相鄰兩國之領海分界線應於沿海國官方承認之大比例尺海圖上標明之。

Article 12


  1.Where the coasts of two States are opposite or adjacent to each other, neither of the two States is entitled, failing agreement between them to the contrary, to extend its territorial sea beyond the median line every point of which is equidistant from the nearest points on the baselines from which the breadth of the territorial seas of each of the two States is measured. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply, however, where it is necessary by reason of historic title or other special circumstances to delimit the territorial seas of the two States in a way which is at variance with this provision.
  2.The line of delimitation between the territorial seas of two States lying opposite to each other or adjacent to each other shall be marked on large-scale charts officially recognized by the coastal States.

第13條


  河川直接流注入海者,以河岸低潮線間連接河口各端之直線為基線。

Article 13


  If a river flows directly into the sea, the baseline shall be a straight line across the mouth of the river between points on the low-tide line of its banks.

  四、在公海之一部份與公海另一部份或外國領海之間供國際航行之用之海峽中,不得停止外國船舶之無害通過。

Article 16


  1.The coastal State may take the necessary steps in its territorial sea to prevent passage which is not innocent.

Article 19


  1.The criminal jurisdiction of the coastal State should not be exercised on board a foreign ship passing through the territorial sea to arrest any person or to conduct any investigation in connection with any crime committed on board the ship during its passage, save only in the following cases:
