Once the United States joins the Bank and the Agreement officially takes effect, the Agreement carries full legal force throughout the United States, its territories and possessions, and Puerto Rico.

The Agreement that created the Bank has full legal force and effect in the United States, in U.S. territories and possessions, and in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. This happens once two things are both true: the United States has accepted membership in the Bank, and the Agreement itself has entered into force.
