Reservations about international treaties are one of the topics that are still subject to research and criticism among legal scholars, as they are directly related to the law of international treaties and are one of the most important sources of basic international law. This study aims to examine the impact of national and legal motives on Saudi Arabia’s reservations about international treaties. This study adopts the mixed approach that consists of descriptive analytical and comparative approach, which is based on analyzing the content of legal theories and international treaties while making a comparison between the reservation on international treaties in its personal nature. The comparative approach is one of the methods of scientific research that aim at making an objective comparison between two phenomena in two different places, so that what others have reached can be viewed while adapting that to suit local conditions. The problem of the study is based mainly on the idea of reconciling the importance of the system of reservations to treaties for states according to their own reasons, on the one hand, and the necessity of preserving the unity and integrity of international treaties and not violating their subject and purpose, on the other hand, in order to reach the largest possible number of states participating in the treaties, in particular Legitimization, which includes the creation of international legal rules at the international level. The study reached several results, the most important of which is that there is a need to study public international law and its relationship to the elements of Country and its direct and integrated impact on the sovereignty of Country and the degree to which these Countries maintain their national and social elements.
