Abstract	On the basis of the analysis of regulations of the international regulatory legal acts in the sphere of corruption prevention two key approaches to regulation of limitations of gifts reception by public officials are highlighted in the article. The conclusion is drawn that the mechanism of anticorruption limitations of gifts reception, realized in the national legal system, harmoniously united lines of both existing models. At the same time, it is grounded that provisions of the current legislation of Ukraine in the explored sphere should be improved regarding to definition of close persons and types of the forbidden gifts.
Keywords	prevention of corruption; international anticorruption legislation; anticorruption limitations; gift from close persons; publicly available discount.
