  The regularities of the contemporary distribution of the precipitation regime within the territory of Azerbaijan were researched in the research paper. The perennial tendency of the precipitation regime was determined using the rainfall observation data for the years between 1961 and 2020 in the conducted research. Based on the obtained results, a state-of-the-art precipitation map was compiled for the country. At the same time, the dynamics of the precipitation regime during the period 1961-2020, as opposed to the period 1881-1960, were evaluated. The research period was divided into two half-periods, namely 1961-1990 and 1991-2020, and the internal tendencies were analysed. The results of the investigation indicate that although the amount of the precipitation region underwent a downward trend across the country, the number of stations with a statistically significant decrease is sm..
