The National Archives says this about the Atlantic Charter:

Atlantic Charter

Joint declaration made by Roosevelt and Churchill in August 1941, setting out broad principles for the conduct of international relations in the postwar world. Drawn up at sea, off the coast of Newfoundland, it provided a foundation for the United Nations Charter. Its eight principles included non-aggression, self-determination, free trade, freedom of the seas, and renunciation of territorial expansion.

As you can see this charter gave the nations who used the Atlantic Ocean freedom of the ocean and safety from aggressors. It was also a foundation for the United Nations.

The Atlantic Charter was a basic layout and plan for post World War 1 life. In later years it actually became to be an influential document in the history of treaties.
One can consider the document as one of the first key steps toward the well established United Nations in 1945.

It was significant in the fact that it helped to bring the U.S.A into the war. It also helped that it gave America a position in the European countries as a friend rather than a foe for many years to come.

The significance of the Atlantic Charter was that it defined the Allied goals for after the war. It was issued on August 14, 1941.
