Maritime border in the Baltic Sea – Polish-Danish consensus

On 1 November 2018 the Republic of Poland and the Kingdom of Denmark have reached a consensus on the route of the maritime border in the Baltic Sea.

After many years, Denmark and Poland have agreed on a maritime border in the Baltic Sea which, after the entry into force of the relevant Agreement, will divide the continental shelves and the exclusive economic zones of both countries in the southern part of the Baltic Sea of Bornholm. These regulations seek to ensure legal clarity in the Baltic Sea Region.

In order for the agreement to enter into force as a result of this agreement, it will be necessary to be accepted in the internal procedures of both countries.
