Introduction: in the context of the implementation of the declared technological modernization of the EAEU economy, the issue of developing the legal framework for the integration in the field of science, technology and innovation, and especially the issue of developing a system of its legal principles, is being updated. The purpose of the study is to develop a comprehensive conceptual understanding of the nature, system and functions of the legal principles that are the core of the legal regulation of the integration cooperation of the EAEU member states in the field of science, technology and innovation. The objectives of the study are the following: 1) to relate the legal principles of the regulation of scientific and technological integration with the principles of the Eurasian integration in general; 2) to carry out a consistent analysis of the degree of consolidation of the principles of scientific and technological integration in Union law; 3) to carry out the doctrinal classification of the principles. Methods: general scientific methods (system, structural and functional), specific scientific methods (comparative legal, dogmatic legal). Results: a classification of the legal principles of scientific and technological integration is proposed, the system of which includes a subgroup of general principles, as well as a subgroup of industry (structural-institutional, integration-legal and organizational) principles. Conclusions: the systematized legal principles are conceptualized as the key legal tools for managing integration processes in the field of science, technology and innovation, the formal consolidation of which will serve as a factor for expanding and deepening the regional scientific and technological integration of the member states.
