This document contains a set of good practices that may assist States in carrying out legal reviews of autonomous weapon systems (‘AWS’) in a manner that accounts for their unique characteristics. Adoption of these practices can enhance the efficacy of legal reviews as a mechanism for implementing international legal obligations relevant to AWS. Considering that legal reviews are undertaken at the national level and that States have significant discretion in terms of the conduct of the reviews, some or all of these practices could be independently adopted by States, or agreed as representing good practice with other States.
