The Paris Peace Accords (Vietnamese: Hiệp định Paris về Việt Nam, lit. 'Paris Treaty about Vietnam'), officially the Agreement on ending the war and restoring peace in Viet-Nam (Hiệp định về chấm dứt chiến tranh, lập lại hòa bình ở Việt Nam), was a peace agreement signed on 27 January 1973 to establish peace in Vietnam and end the Vietnam War. It included a main treaty and accompanying annexes. The agreement was registered by the United States of America on May 13, 1974, with the United Nations Secretariat. It is recorded in the United Nations Treaty Series (UNTS) under Volume 935, Treaty No.13295. The agreement entered into force upon signature and included a cease-fire, which was scheduled to take effect at 24:00 GMT on 27 January. The agreement was signed by the Democratic Republic of Vietnam (North Vietnam), the Republic of Vietnam (South Vietnam), the Provisional Revolutionary Government (PRG), and the United States. The PRG represented the Viet Cong (VC, NLF), a South Vietnamese opposition movement de facto controlled by the North.
