Abstract
One of the most important issues in the field of exporting gas to the European Union through pipelines is understanding the market and the laws and regulations in the EU as well as the requirements of other countries in the face of these regulations. In this article first The European Union and then the laws and regulations in Iran regarding the issue of gas export have been analyzed. The results of the research show that the EU Third Gas Directive 2009 forms the basis of the legal and contractual issues of the EU gas market which provide various legal guidelines, including ownership separation, third-party access to the gas storage facilities, and Regulatory Bodies. Laws on the Third Gas Directive regarding Third Party Access to the Network, Tariff Regulation, Ownership, and Transparency completely apply to existing and future gas pipelines to EU Borders including Territorial Waters and Exclusive Economic zone between EU and third Countries including Iran. It is suggested that third countries review and amend their laws in the event of any inconsistencies with the three laws and regulations.
