This study examines the development of cooperation between the Republic of Uzbekistan and international organizations and foreign countries in the area of controlling new synthetic narcotic substances (NSNS) and combating their illegal trafficking. The rapid proliferation of synthetic drugs presents unprecedented legal, public health, and security challenges globally, and Uzbekistan, as both a transit and increasingly a consumer country, faces specific and pressing vulnerabilities requiring a comprehensive international response. Using a qualitative research design based on doctrinal and comparative legal analysis, the study reviews binding international conventions, regional institutional frameworks, bilateral agreements, and national legislation. Findings reveal that while Uzbekistan has made meaningful progress in aligning its legal system with international drug control norms and in engaging with bodies such as the UNODC, SCO, CIS, and CSTO, significant gaps remain in early warning systems, analogue scheduling legislation, forensic infrastructure, and cross-border data sharing. The study recommends legislative modernization, enhanced multilateral coordination, forensic capacity investment, and integrated demand reduction programming as the principal priorities for strengthening Uzbekistan's response to the NSNS threat.
