International organizations are institutions constituted by international agreement between two or more States to accomplish common goals. The legal personality of these international organizations has been recognized not only in municipal law, but in international law as well.
Permanent international commissions and administrative bodies have been created by the agreement of a considerable number of States for a variety of international purposes, economic or social and mainly non-political. In so far as they are autonomous and beyond the control of any one State, they have distinct juridical personality independent of the municipal law of the State where they are situated. As such, they are deemed to possess a species of international personality of their own. (SEAFDEC-AQD v. NLRC, 206 SCRA 283, Feb. 14, 1992)
