In the monograph “Legal Regulation of the Marital Contract: Analysis and Issues of Improvement”, the author examines the history of the emergence of the contract for the provision of paid services and its definition in civil law, the scope of application of contracts for the provision of paid services, and the specific features of such agreements.

The conclusion formulates findings and presents several proposals aimed at improving the national legislation regulating the contractual regime of property between spouses.

The monograph has been prepared in line with the goals and objectives defined in the Strategy for the Development of New Uzbekistan for 2022–2026, taking into account relevant legislative materials and specialized academic literature.

The research emphasizes the importance of developing a modern legal framework that reflects both national traditions and international experience in family law. Particular attention is given to the comparative analysis of marital contracts in Uzbekistan, Islamic countries, and European jurisdictions, revealing differences in legal philosophy, contractual freedom, and protection of spousal rights. The study underscores that the effective regulation of marital contracts not only contributes to legal certainty and economic stability within the family but also serves as an indicator of the progressive evolution of civil society and the rule of law in Uzbekistan.
