The peculiarities of defining and enshrining enforced disappearance as a crime in the Declaration on the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearances adopted by the UN General Assembly in 1992 have been considered, the importance of this document has been substantiated. The special significance of the Inter-American Convention on the Enforced Disappearance of Persons adopted by the Organization of American States and dated from 1994 has been outlined. Certain aspects of the formation of prohibition of enforced disappearances in accordance with the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court have been stressed upon. Differences in the internationally established prohibition of enforced disappearances have been clarified, given the content of international legal acts adopted and aimed at protecting persons from this encroachment. The preconditions for the adoption of the International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance dated from 2006 have been determined, its structure and main provisions.
