In this article, we will try to reveal some legal problems regarding the determination of the admissibility of an application (complaint) in the administrative proceedings of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The judicial practice and legislation of Uzbekistan do not use the concept of admissibility of administrative claims. But based on the experience of Germany and a number of other countries, one can learn that in administrative proceedings the concepts of the admissibility and validity of administrative claims stand out. These concepts are used to ensure that in administrative proceedings the court has the opportunity to cut off those claims that, according to formal requirements, cannot be considered on the merits. This makes it possible for the courts not to waste time and resources on cases that cannot be considered according to formal requirements. Also, the presentation of requirements under the conditions of the admissibility of a claim in administrative proceedings prevents the filing of unnecessary claims, thereby enabling the courts to consider only those disputes that are of legal significance. Complaints are decreasing, and the workload of the courts is also becoming moderate, which makes it possible to concentrate on really problematic cases from the point of view of the law. Therefore, the admissibility of a claim in administrative proceedings is a very important mechanism for cutting off unnecessary claims and considering really problematic disputes. On the other hand, if the courts are exempted from unnecessary claims, then the courts have a greater opportunity to qualitatively consider the cases that are pending in administrative proceedings. This article will highlight issues regarding the exhaustion of the instance order (subsidiarity), and the permissible time limits for submitting an application (complaint) in administrative proceedings.
