Qatar (joined January 13, 2026)
Qatar signed the Pax Silica Declaration on January 12, 2026, not January 13.
Full reasoning
Official Qatari government sources place Qatar's signing on January 12, 2026.
Qatar News Agency reported on 12 January 2026 that Qatar and the United States "signed today" the Pax Silica Declaration. Qatar's International Media Office monthly review likewise lists "12 January 2026" for the event, stating that Qatar signed the Pax Silica Declaration during Jacob Helberg's visit to Doha.
That directly contradicts the article's claim that Qatar joined on January 13, 2026.

Philippines (signed April 17, 2026)
Philippine government sources date the Philippines’ Pax Silica signing to April 16, 2026, not April 17.
Full reasoning
Multiple Philippine government sources place the Philippines' accession/signing on April 16, 2026.
A Philippine News Agency report says the visit of Jacob Helberg "followed the April 16 signing of the Pax Silica Declaration." Separately, the Philippine Board of Investments page hosting Pax Silica materials includes a downloadable file explicitly labeled "Pax Silica Declaration-PH-US signed 04-16-26."
Those government-linked sources contradict the article's claim that the Philippines signed on April 17, 2026.
