The paper deals with the conclusion and implementation of the international treaties in the legal systems of the three neighbouring countries: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Montenegro, and Croatia. The normative framework of the analysis is the relevant provisions of the constitutions and laws regulating the conclusion and implementation of the international treaties. The author points to the importance of the international treaties and the importance of regulating their conclusion and implementation. The first part of the paper is devoted to the place that international treaties have in the legal systems of these countries. The main part of the paper analyses the laws governing the procedure for concluding and implementing international treaties in these countries. The aim of the paper is to examine the similarities and differences in the ways of regulating relations with international treaties, as well as the procedure for concluding and implementing the international treaties. It is particularly pointed to the similarities and differences between the two countries that are in the process of EU integration and Croatia, already being a member of the EU. In conclusion, there are several common characteristics, but also certain differences.
