Bilateral treaty
A bilateral treaty (also called a bipartite treaty) is a treaty strictly between two state parties. These two parties can be two nations, or two international organizations, or one nation and one international organization and two persons.
Similar to a contract, it is also called a contractual treaty.
An example is the Camp David Accords between Egypt and Israel, signed in September 1978.
