This study discusses the legal issues of regulation of transboundary water resources of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The purpose of the study is to study the problem of rational use and protection of transboundary rivers of Kazakhstan to ensure stable development. The methodology for solving the direct problem is based on general scientific methods of cognition, and concepts of interaction between society and nature; methods of logical-legal, structural-functional, and comparative legal analysis were applied based on a comprehensive approach to the study subject. The authors identified several advantages and disadvantages of current legal regulation measures and reviewed the current state of transboundary water resources of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Also, the authors analysed the regulatory framework in transboundary water resources management and investigated the international regulatory framework for cooperation in the field of transboundary water resources management of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The authors conclude that a considerable disadvantage in establishing an effective legal regime for regulating water resources is the practical lack of legal regulation at the river basin level.
