Summary/Abstract: The subject of treaty reservations has been on the codification scene since the UN General Assembly, bound by Article 13 of the UN Charter, endorsed by Resolution 48/31 of 9 December 1993 the decision of the UN Commission on International Law to include in the codification program an item entitled "Law and Practice on reservations on contracts ". Reservations as an international legal institute, which contain three normative treaties in written form: the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (1969), the Vienna Convention on the Succession of States in Relation to Treaties (1978) and the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties between States and International Organizations (1986). are theoretically and practically still a knotted question. Therefore, a decision has been taken to give reservations to a separate and central role, with the codification title shortened to "Reservations to the Treaties".
