Burns Law Library Q&A

Treaties and Other International Acts Series (TIAS), the first official publication of U.S. treaties and international agreements, is a series of consecutively numbered, individually paginated pamphlets containing the texts of agreements in English and other official languages of an agreement.

After appearing in TIAS in slip form, U.S. treaties and international agreements are published in bound volumes of United States Treaties and Other International Agreements.

Older citations to TIAS look like: T.I.A.S. No. 10,814.  Citations from 2002 forward use a year and number designation: T.I.A.S. 02-1003. 

TIAS can be found on the State Department's website, on HeinOnline, and in print.
