The study considers the history of establishment, current condition and perspective of the legislative regulation in establishing and functioning of national DNA database systems in some European and Asian countries. The authors study the peculiarities in establishing systems of DNA registration regarding a case study of Great Britain, China and the USA as the countries having a considerable experience in this field and the biggest national DNA databases. Thus, the main developmental characteristics in the forensic registration of these countries are identified. The aim of the study is to examine the theoretical aspects of the legislative regulation in establishing and functioning of national DNA database systems including the purposes to create the best model of the legislative regulation to meet the requirements of a modern society. The gaps in the state regulation of genomic registration are noted. It is determined that the existing laws and regulations in Russia do not completely satisfy the demands of the times for they considerably limit the sphere of application of DNA registration systems. As a result, the real potential of the DNA registration system in Russia is identified. Consequently, it will assist in establishment of a more effective model of DNA registration system taking into account the world's experience. Regulatory developments in legal activities as ways to improve legislative regulation of the genomic registration in Russia are set.
