The main purpose of our research highlights a lack of awareness about donor laws, inadequate implementation, and critical challenges that require legal reform, enhanced support for donors, and better training for healthcare professionals. The legislative framework for organ transplantation varies widely across Asian countries, reflecting differences in cultural, ethical, and legal perspectives.

Organ transplantation involves transferring organs, tissues, or cells from donors to recipients, with a significant global demand surpassing the available supply. Biomedical ethics, as outlined by Beauchamp and Childress, and further examined by Veatch and Harris, provide a framework for addressing the moral dilemmas associated with transplantation. In Mongolia, the organ transplantation framework is guided by international standards, though there are gaps in legislation, social welfare, and insurance coverage, which impact the effectiveness of the transplant system.
