International Environmental Law: Statutes and Regulations

Locating Foreign Statutes & Regulations

Although treaties are the primary source of IEL, it is important to be aware of foreign statutes and laws. Locating these materials can be challenging because English translations are not always available.

For more detailed information and sources on foreign law research, refer to the International and Foreign Law ResearchGuide's "Foreign Law" section. 

Search Terms

Often, your topic will be relatively narrow. Use narrow, keyword searches coupled with terms of an international nature such as:

              • international
              • transnational
              • global
              • transboundary
