This treaty, signed in London, Moscow and Washington on January 27, 1967, regulates international cooperation in space exploration.

Uzbekistan’s accession to international organizations and documents based on international law helps strengthen cooperation with developed countries and accelerate technology transfer. The treaty, which entered into force on October 10, 1967, has already been supported by 114 countries.

Ratification of the agreement opens up new opportunities for Uzbekistan to explore and use space, free access to all areas of outer space and celestial bodies, as well as participation in international space projects and the exchange of resources and knowledge.
