INTRODUCTION
Article 13 establishes the reporting requirements for States Parties to the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). Each State Party is obligated to submit an initial report on measures it has taken to implement the Treaty within the first year of the ATT’s entry into force for that State Party, and to update this report when appropriate. In addition, each State Party is also required to submit annual reports of its authorized or actual exports and imports of the conventional arms covered by Article 2(1) for the preceding calendar year. All States Parties are also encouraged to report information on effective measures they have taken to address the diversion of conventional arms. Such reports are to be made available, and distributed to States Parties by the Secretariat.
