In spite of existence of principle in various aspects of international economic law, its nature and content remains ambiguous. So, the question is whether transparency can be regarded as a binding legal principle. The present article through a descriptive-analytic study shows that transparency as a legal principle is a fundamental principles of international economic law that can be seen in state practices and international case laws. It also has all features listed for a legal principle. Thus, this concept can be recognized as an obligatory principle in various areas of international economic law, such as international investment law, international trade law, international monetary and financial law, and International commercial law. But, it should be considered that positivist approach to international law appears as an obstacle to implement and exercise of the principle in all detailed sub-division of above-mentioned areas.
