The article deals with the Ukrainian notary, which now, in difficult times for our country, also faces certain challenges that need to be addressed systematically at the scientific level. The purpose of the article is to study the place of the notary as a body of undisputed jurisdiction in the modern legal system of Ukraine. To show its important role in theprotection of indisputable rights of subjects of civil relations and the problems that arise during the performance of notarial acts by both notaries and authorized persons of local governments, consuls and ways to solve them. In particular, through a comprehensive approach to the harmonization of substantive law with the law on notaries, which regulates procedural activity of a notary, because it is with the help of a notarial procedure that the norms of substantive law are analyzed.

The article deals with the role and place of notaries in the modern legal system in the age of digital technologies. However, until recently, the Law of Ukraine “On Notaries” of 1993. Its content has been amended and supplemented, but this Law has not undergone a radical rethinking, although now the question of recoding the Civil Code is being actively raised, and the Law continues to be subject only to fragmentary changes. Therefore, the question should be not so much about updating the Law of Ukraine “On Notaries” as about its systematic modernization. This does not mean the banal implementation of the constitutional principle of the rule of law in the activities of notaries or expanding their competence, due to non-notarial functions and in order to obtain more income notaries, and finding a place for notaries in the modern legal system of Ukraine to eliminate at least some issues of public relations.

The issue of annulment of the state notary is acute. but this issue is premature, especially in times of low level of economic activity and the economic situation in which our country found itself.

 In conclusion, the Law of Ukraine “On Notaries” needs comprehensive modernization, but taking into account the developments that have already been made by scientists. In particular, such important aspects as improving the organization of the work of bodies that provide notarial services also need to be regulated. proposed a number of notarial actions that can expand the competence of notaries, disclosure requires notarial relations, substantive coordination of notaries and executors, notaries and judges, notaries and consuls, and all this necessitates the adoption of the Notary Code.
