United Nations documents

PubID parses United Nations document symbols — the slash-separated designations used across UN organs and bodies, such as General Assembly resolutions ("A/RES/78/1") and the UN/CEFACT trade documents ("TRADE/CEFACT/2004/32").

InternationalSyntax UN document symbols follow the UN Editorial Manual pattern {Series}/{Body}[/{Year}]/{Number}, e.g. A/RES/78/1 (General Assembly resolution 78/1). The "UN " prefix is optional and normalized away ("UN A/RES/78/1" renders "A/RES/78/1"). Working-party documents carry annex/recommendation letters (TRADE/WP.4/R.1068). Website →
