To a
question of concept of the external economic contracts of the Republic of Kazakhstan
Need of attraction of foreign
investments into economy and development of foreign economic relations of the
Republic of Kazakhstan, expansion of the contract relations of the Kazakhstan
businessmen with foreign partners, rapprochement of the national legislation on
the external economic questions with the international agreements cause special
relevance of legal problems of the external economic contracts. Also for
development of the Kazakhstan legislation on this matter as though in the
Republic of Kazakhstan rather large number of the laws and other regulations
regulating these or those aspects of foreign economic activity is already
accepted the General part of the Civil Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan is accepted,
[1] (further - RK Group), Special part of the Civil Code of the Republic of
Kazakhstan. The Kazakhstan legislation doesn't contain special definition of
the external economic contracts. With development of the market scope of
application not only contracts, but also other types of the external economic
contracts extends: leasing, factoring, forfeiting, franchising, etc.
Transactions being
external economic gives to the parties opportunity of application not only the
right of the foreign state, but also standards of the relevant international
conventions, thus standards of conventions can have a priority in relation to
standards of the national legislation. To internal transactions of standard of
conventions are inapplicable.
Thus,
recognition of the contract the external economic involves important legal
consequences and there is an imperative need of a normative definition of the
external economic contract.
Considering a ratio of
concepts of the contract with concepts of the transaction and contract, it
should be noted that the contract by the legal nature is the same contract. In
legal literature the terms "contract" and "contract" are
considered as synonymous concepts. As A. N. Mukhitdinov noted, in wide value
the contract is understood as any contract and the agreement and in this sense
the concept "contract" is applied in world practice, in foreign
countries [2 Pages 17]. A. N. Mukhitdinov differentiates concept of the
contract of three values: the contract as the legal fact, the contract as the
document establishing the rights and obligations of the parties, that is
contents of the contract, and the contract as legal institute. From this point
of view, we believe, it is possible to define that the contract as the legal
fact fixes the conditions coordinated by the parties at the conclusion of the
contract; the contract as the document affirms the rights and obligations of
the parties; the contract as legal institute represents set of the precepts of
law regulating certain types of the civil relations. It is fairly noted that
still in literature there aren't enough researches studying the legal nature of
the contract, its place in system of the right. However the term
"contract" is already widely put informally in the sphere civil, obligations
into practice though legislatively application of this term is fixed only
concerning labor agreements so far. The term "contract" is applied
and in the Decrees of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan which are
valid the law "About Oil" (chapter 5 "Contracts" of the
Decree "About Oil") and "About a subsoil and subsurface
use" (chapter 5 "Contracts for exploration and production" of
the Decree "About a Subsoil") in which the contract is defined as the
contract for carrying out oil operations (Art. 1 of the Decree "About
Oil"); the contract for carrying out operations on subsurface use (Art. 1
of the Decree "About a Subsoil") though the Civil Code of the
Republic of Kazakhstan doesn't contain definition of the contract.
Considering a ratio of the
concepts "contract" and "contract" with the concept
"transaction", it should be noted that the concept
"transaction" is broader than the concepts "contract" and
"contract". The actions of citizens and legal entities directed on
establishment, change or the termination of the civil rights and duties belong
to transactions according to Art. 147 of RK Group. The transaction expresses
will of one or two or more persons (Art. 148 of RK Group). The transaction
expressing will of two or more persons admits the contract (Art. 148 of RK
Group). That is, the concept the contract or the contract already of concept of
the transaction, any contract (contract) is the transaction, however the
unilateral transaction the contract (contract) doesn't admit.
V.A. Musin calls such contracts the international trade contracts and
carries to them "the transactions made for commercial purposes by persons
of various state accessory and attracting emergence, change or the termination
of the civil rights and duties connected with creation, use or realization of
material benefits or other results of human activity" [3.s.15]. In one of
recent researches on this question definition of the external economic
contracts as agreements of the Russian businessmen with foreign firms and
citizens, the external economic operations having a subject connected with an
exchange of goods and services between the states (delivery of goods,
performance of work or other services, transportation of freight and so on).
G. D. Akhmadiyeva gives
definition that the external economic contract (contract) is a kind of the
civil contract, possessing at the same time the specific signs allowing to
allocate the external economic contracts (contracts) in separate group [4].
Special subject and object structures of the external economic contracts treat
such signs: contractors of various state accessory act as subjects, object are
the relations in the field of foreign economic activity: foreign trade and
foreign investment [4].
In my opinion the external
economic contract (contract) is a document, the establishing rights and
obligations of the parties, the main which place of activity is determined by a
place of registration.
It is possible to allocate two main signs of the external
economic contracts: 1) contents of contracts - the relations in the sphere of
foreign economic activity: operations on export import of goods, services,
results of creative activity, operation on foreign capital investments; 2)
belonging of the parties to different state (national) systems.
In this regard it is
necessary to allocate two groups of the external economic contracts: household
external economic contracts and enterprise external economic contracts. As the
main signs of the enterprise contract it is possible to mark out profitability
and commercial character of the contract as the purpose of enterprise contracts
is a receiving profit, the income; commercial character of the enterprise
external economic contract consists in the conclusions of such contracts in the
sphere of production, trade activity and other economic spheres. Household
external economic contracts (contracts), and enterprise external economic
contracts (contracts) are characterized by specific features. Such contracts,
first, possess special signs of the external economic contracts (contracts)
determined by us above: special subject and object structures; secondly, these
contracts differ on the conclusion purpose: the household - for personal
consumption, enterprise - in the enterprise sphere for the purpose of receiving
profit.
