The representatives of the countries which, so far, have not declared their adhesion to one or the other of the following Conventions, viz:

The Convention of the 1st June 1878;

The Agreement dated June 1, 1878, relative to the exchange of letters with declared value;

The Agreement of June 4, 1878, relative to the exchange of money-orders;

The Convention of November 3, 1880, relative to the exchange of postal parcels without declaration of value;

Having been allowed to take part in the Additional Acts modifying and completing these Conventions and Agreements, their signature at the foot of one or the other of these Additional Acts implies on their part, subject to ratification, the adhesion in the name of their country, to the Convention or Agreement to which such additional Act relates, such adhesion to date from the date the latter takes effect.

In case one or several of the contracting parties to the Postal Conventions signed this day at Lisbon should not ratify one or the other of these Conventions, that Convention will be none the less valid for the States which have ratified it.

In faith of which the undersigned plenipotentiaries have drawn up the present final protocol, which shall have the same force and value as if its provisions were inserted in the text itself of the Conventions to which it relates; and they have signed it in one single instrument which shall be deposited in the Archives of the Portuguese Government, and a copy of which shall be delivered to each party.

Lisbon, the twenty-first of March, one thousand eight hundred and eighty-five.
