IMAS in French
A number of standards have been translated into different languages. Most of these are regarded as "unofficial" because they have not been endorsed by a United Nations formally approved translation service, but they are believed to be accurate translations. Readers should check which date, edition and amendment number the translation refers to, as a later version in English may have been produced.
The directory below lists the official IMAS in English as well as the IMAS that have been translated into French.
IMAS have been translated into Arabic, Chinese, French, Russian and Spanish.
