Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of problematic issues of performing notarial acts by consular institutions of Ukraine abroad.

The relevance of the study is related to the global processes of globalization, the expansion of human migration and labor opportunities, in which the first place goes to human self-realization in the world. Determination of the legal terminology and the legal status of the entities, responsible for the implementation of notarial activities abroad. Differences in the status of the consular section of the diplomatic embassy are analyzed, as their employees are diplomatic employees and an independent consulate, whose employees are consular officials. Attention is paid to the problem of correctly determining the subject of notarial acts, based on the analysis of current legislation. The emphasis is made on the problems of the quality of notarial actions, access to the profession, proper professional competence of employees of consular institutions in the implementation of notarial actions. The problem of access to special registries. A new approach to solving these problems is proposed by introducing a new legal specialty - a lawyer for consular offices with skills in notarial activity.

This affects the development of civil relations and the desire to protect them, to guarantee them in an indisputable notarial order, being abroad by applying to a body of national rather than foreign (host country) jurisdiction. Significant factors are the convenience of such treatment: the national language of office work, national legal regulation (both substantive legal relations, and procedural, which regulate the procedure of notarial acts), the relative affordability of notarial acts, performed by consular offices, the lack of the following procedure legalization of the performed notarial act and documents
