Mutual Agreement Procedure enables competent authorities to resolve treaty interpretation and implementation disputes through direct communication and agreed procedures.

Mutual Agreement Procedure requires competent authorities to endeavour to resolve difficulties or doubts regarding treaty implementation or interpretation by mutual agreement, permits those authorities to agree on procedures for handling matters affecting other treaty provisions, allows direct communication between competent authorities to reach agreement, and authorises the Parties to adopt other forms of dispute resolution if necessary.
