Annotation: The article explores the problems arising in the application of anti-corruption clauses in foreign economic contracts in the Republic of Uzbekistan. Despite the fact that Uzbekistan has already taken a number of important steps aimed at combating corruption, such as the adoption of the basic Law of the Republic of Uzbekistan “On Combating Corruption” and the establishment of a specialized Agency, the practice of using anti-corruption clauses in the private sector remains underdeveloped and ineffective. The article reflects the main enforcement difficulties, such as the lack of specific legislative requirements for anti-corruption clauses, ambiguity of judicial practice and weak enforcement. Based on the study of the best international practices (USA, UK, EU), recommendations are proposed to improve the legislation of the Republic of Uzbekistan and the practice of application of anti-corruption clauses that can ensure a real reduction of corruption risks, strengthen the confidence of foreign partners and increase the investment attractiveness of the country.

Keywords: anti-corruption clauses, problems of law enforcement, foreign economic transactions, corruption, corruption risks, compliance, international standards, enforcement control.
