1. Foreign Administrative Acts: General Report

Most countries recognise the notion of “administrative act” as an individual decision taken by a public authority to rule a specific case, submitted to public law and immediately enforceable and, in general, they also identified a foreign administrative act as the one issued by a foreign or international authority and submitted to foreign or international law. However, the existence of a international legal framework does not prevent the existence of broad differences on service, recognition and execution of these foreign administrative acts. It is necessary, to deepen the study of the transnational administrative act, paying special attention to how it affects the conception of the administrative act in different legal cultures and its potential impact on procedural rights and judicial guarantees of the recipients of such acts.
