Oral and Electronic Forms of a State Contract for Performance of Contractual Works for the Needs of the System of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia

The article is devoted to the conflict of laws provisions of the Russian legislation regulating the form of a state contract for the performance of contractual works for the needs of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs system. In the course of the analysis the author comes to the conclusion that, in general, the oral form of the transaction is inapplicable to the said state contract, but only can be an exception in connection with certain life circumstances (legal facts) established in regulatory legal acts. At the same time, the use of the electronic form of the state contract in modern times prevails over the written and oral forms of transactions. The development of social relations in the field of digitalization is the main determinant factor in the allocation and legislative consolidation of the third form of transactions — electronic, which has its own specific and unique characteristics.
