The Civil Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan, which entered into force on January 1, 1997, is 
the first legal norm for franchising contracts in Uzbekistan. Chapter 50 of the Civil Code of the 
Republic of Uzbekistan (Articles 862-874) is devoted to the legal regulation of the complex 
business license agreement. In this chapter, the concepts related to the comprehensive business 
license agreement, i.e., the procedure for drawing up and formalizing it, the restrictive conditions 
of the agreement, the rights and obligations of the parties, the licensor's responsibility for the 
requirements imposed on the licensee, and the grounds for invalidity of the agreement are 
expressed. 
In the system of legal norms related to the complex business license (franchising) contract in the 
Republic of Uzbekistan, the "Administrative regulation on the provision of public service on the 
state registration of complex business license (franchising) contracts" approved by the decision 
of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Uzbekistan No. 346 of June 24, 2022, has become 
important. This Regulation regulates the procedure for state registration of the contract in detail. 
Also, the procedure for state registration of the contract, which is abstractly expressed in Article 
863 of the Civil Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan, is specified. In particular, Article 863 of the 
Civil Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan stipulates that "a complex business license agreement 
must be drawn up in writing and it must be registered by the body that registers a legal entity or 
individual entrepreneur acting as a licensor in accordance with the agreement." the issue of 
registration in the state body is not clearly defined. In contrast to the Civil Code of the Republic 
of Uzbekistan, paragraph 4 of the Regulation states that "if the licensor is registered in a foreign 
country as a legal entity or individual entrepreneur, the state registration of the franchise 
agreement (significant changes, additions, and cancellations) shall make the legal entity or 
individual entrepreneur acting as a licensee under the agreement to be carried out by the state 
registration body of the Republic of Uzbekistan"
