The article compares conditions and procedures for the adoption of Constitution and amendments to thecurrent constitution between the Republic of Bulgaria and the Republic of Kazakhstan. The criteria used inthe legal theory for the classification of the constitutions according to the way of their change are used. Bothconstitutions refer to the category of the hard. Bulgaria has a solid core of the constitution, which can onlybe changed by a specially elected institution — a Great (Grand) National Assembly. In Kazakhstan there areeven texts that are not subject to change. The experience of several changes to the two basic laws has beenconsidered. Whit them some of the questions have been answered by juridical theory and practice, whileothers remain open. At the end, conclusions are drawn from the parallel between the changes to the bothconstitutions, some of which are of universal significance.
