{{Short description|1958 United Nations treaty}}

The '''Convention on the Territorial Sea and Contiguous Zone''' of 1958 is an international [[treaty]] which entered into force on 10 September 1964, one of four agreed upon at the first United Nations Conference on the Law of the Sea ([[UNCLOS I]]). 52 states are parties to the convention, whether through ratification, succession, or accession.<ref>[https://archive.today/20130705155944/http://treaties.un.org/Pages/ViewDetails.aspx?mtdsg_no=XXI-1&chapter=21&lang=en Ratifications].</ref>

Many parties to this convention have since ratified the 1982 [[United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea]], which came into force in 1994 and supersedes this convention for those states that have ratified [[United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea|UNCLOS]].
