The experience of combating transnational crime in the process of criminal evolution demonstrates immunity to traditional systems of investigation and prevention of criminal offenses, administration of justice and bringing guilty persons to criminal responsibility. In today’s conditions, the creation of joint investigation teams for the investigation of criminal offenses is a topical issue, in particular through the prism of foreign experience. This specificity actualizes the need to find optimal ways of interaction between competent authorities of states for the investigation of criminal offenses through the creation of joint investigation teams. The purpose of the article is to analyze the organizational and tactical aspects of the creation of joint investigation teams for the investigation of criminal offenses in foreign states. The methodological tools were general methods of scientific knowledge, namely: analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, abstraction and scientific forecasting. The study substantiates the need to create joint investigation teams through the interaction of pre-trial investigation bodies of different states. Attention is drawn to the fact that ensuring international cooperation in the field of investigation of criminal offenses of a transnational nature directly depends on the activities of the joint investigation team. A special form of international cooperation during the investigation of criminal offenses involves interaction with a wide range of participants in the criminal process.
Common methods, organizational and tactical recommendations of individual states testify to the positive foreign experience of creating joint investigation teams to improve the efficiency of criminal investigations.
