National laws do not apply in international waters, for the same reason that the laws of one nation are not applicable in a different nation. However, that does not mean that complete anarchy prevails in international waters. There are certain international agreements which apply in international waters. If international waters are thought of as belonging to all nations, then the nations of the world can enact treaties pertaining to those waters.
