Abstract: Abstract The article evaluates the modern doctrine of territorial sea administration, given the experience of Ukraine. The article analyzes the formation of the coastal state's legal and institutional rights and obligations in accordance with international law. It is also studied how such regulation has been formed as well as its interaction with other administrative and legal regulations, which function in a given maritime zone. Public administration of territorial seas, despite the significant role of international legal regulation, fully relies on the institutional and organizational ability of the state to effectively exercise its jurisdiction in the relevant marine areas. For instance, Ukraine is taking steps to fulfill its obligations to ensure the safety of navigation and conduct rescue operations in its area of responsibility in accordance with international agreements. Ukraine’s experience in administering territorial sea after the illegal annexation of Crimea is studied, and the pros and cons are revealed of modern concepts in this area in the context of hybrid conflicts.
