  Outer limit of the exclusive economic zone (200 nautical miles)

In compliance with Article 57 of UNCLOS, the outer limit of the exclusive economic zone (EEZ) is located at 24 nautical miles from the baselines. This limit distinguishes the EEZ from the High Sea. Beyond this limit, an extension of the continental shelf is possible subject to the criterias of Article 76 of UNCLOS.

The objects of the theme "Outer limit of the exclusive economic zone" result from Shom computations and are compliant with Article 10 of the French Order No 2016-1687 of 8 December 2016. They are published by decree of the French Republic.
