EITI Countries

A country that has fully and to the satisfaction of the EITI Board met the four sign-up indicators becomes a Candidate country. These indicators are explained in the EITI Rules. Once a country has obtained the Candidate status it has two years to be validated as a Compliant country.

Several other countries have signaled their intent to implement the EITI. As soon as the EITI Board considers that a country has met the four first indicators, the country becomes an EITI Candidate Country.
