The resolution of corporate conflicts, complicated by a foreign element, may become the determination of the law applicable to the rights, obligations and responsibilities of the parties. One of the reasons is contained in a rather complex system of legal norms, prescriptions inherent in domestic and foreign legislation. The article discusses topical issues on domestic and international corporate law related to the determination of the nationality of a legal entity, its possible subordination to one or another state in the context of resolving future corporate conflicts. First of all, preference is given to the analysis of law enforcement practice regarding the use by individual companies of the law of a particular state, on the basis of modeling, specific conflict situations are designed and, in accordance with the current judicial practice, reasonable solutions and ways of resolving these issues are proposed. Referring to the comparison of various legal systems, the author points out the parallels between the formalization of the norm in the existing agreements of the company and the actual further operation of such an agreement in correlation with the legislation of the state, the right of which is exercised by one of the parties to the agreement. In the conclusion of the article, the author concludes that the existing system of law is imperfect, which gives rise to various conflict situations between foreign companies and proposes amendments to the current legislation.
