The present study is aimed at considering topical international legal problems related to notarial proceedings on the territory of Russia and foreign countries, including within the framework of the EAEU. This article deals with some modern actual international legal problems of notarial proceedings in private international law.Aim . Find ways to solve certain topical problems of notarial proceedings in private international law, in particular, the use of electronic documents issued outside the territory of the Russian Federation and the performance of notarial acts in connection with the introduction of economic measures in the context of sanctions against the Russian Federation.Tasks. Outline the essence and depth of certain topical problems of modern notarial proceedings in private international law, in particular, the use of electronic documents issued outside the territory of the Russian Federation and the performance of notarial acts in connection with the introduction of economic measures in the context of sanctions against the Russian Federation; formulate conclusions and suggestions on the specified research topic.Methods. The methodological basis of this study was the method of analysis and synthesis, the analytical method, the comparative legal method, the system-structural method, and some others.Results . During the study, the authors concluded that notary activity with a foreign element is a complex and responsible process that requires not only a high level of professionalism and competence from a notary public, but also the ability to work with clients from different countries, as well as with other specialists, in order to ensure the correct and accurate execution of documents. It is important to understand that each case can be unique, and a notary must be prepared to adapt to different situations and provide effective problem solving for his clients. However, a properly organized and professionally executed notarial activity with a foreign element can be an important step towards a successful international transaction or legal procedure.Conclusions . If we turn to modern problems of notarial proceedings in private international law, we can conclude that notarial proceedings in the Russian Federation were significantly affected by the global pandemic and the imposed sanctions conditions, which made it difficult or impossible to provide paper documents necessary for notarial acts. We believe that the transition to electronic document management will have a positive impact on international cooperation and will facilitate the performance of notarial acts. As a solution to the problem, we proposed the conclusion of an international treaty regulating electronic document management, in which it would be possible to establish the possibility of accepting international electronic documents.
