Only official instrument approaches authorised under FAR?

So the next question, which I'll ask on Peter's behalf is...

Since Part 97 only prescribes approaches for airports within the US (and
presumably associated territories), how does an N-registered aircraft
ever
fly an IAP in IMC outside the US?

That's easy, this rule doesn't apply outside the US. Part 91.1 says:

"this part prescribes rules governing the operation of aircraft [...]
within the United States, including the waters within 3 nautical miles of
the U.S. coast."

Ah. I'm getting confused with Parts 43 and 61, which clearly have to (and
do) apply extraterritorially. That will also satisfy Peter's original
question, which I think was looking at the applicability outside the US.
