It is recognized by only three other non-UN member states, Abkhazia, South Ossetia and Transnistria. The rest of the international community recognizes Artsakh as part of Azerbaijan. In November 2012, a member of Uruguay's foreign relations committee stated that his country could recognize Nagorno-Karabakh's independence. In 2012, Armenia and Tuvalu established diplomatic relations and it was expected that Tuvalu may recognize Artsakh's independence.

The Republic of Abkhazia (Abkhazia) is a self-proclaimed state that declared independence soon after a catastrophic war as a residual effect of the dissolutionn of the Soviet Union in early 1990s, known as the War in Abkhazia (1992–1993), between Abkhazian and Georgian forces. As newly declared state, Abkhazia struggled to gain recognition from the international community, with one country recognizing Abkhazia as an independent state immediately after the war. Firstly, Transnistria and Abkhazia mutually recognised each other on 22 January 1993. This was seen as the first step to Abkhazia looking towards recognition. After two decades, on 20 September, 2005, the second country that mutually recognised Abkhazia was South Ossetia. Third, Nagorno-Karabakh also followed the two other countries in recognizing Abkhazia on 14 November, 2006.

It is considered by most member states of the United Nations to be part of Georgia, as is neighboring Abkhazia. South Ossetia declared independence from Georgia in 1991, but did not receive recognition from any UN member states until after the 2008 South Ossetia War. It, along with Russia, Abkhazia, Syria, and North Korea, is the only state recognized by member states of the United Nations that recognizes the Donetsk People's Republic and the Luhansk People's Republic.
The Transnistrian republic is recognized by three states with limited recognition, and is a member of one international organization, the Community for Democracy and Human Rights, that was established by these four states.

Bilateral relations between Abkhazia and Vanuatu were begun when Vanuatu recognised Abkhazia's independence on 23 May 2011. On that day a joint statement on establishment of diplomatic relations was signed. However, the exact nature of the recognition was a matter of dispute and was not regularized until July 2013. However, over the years and part of domestic powerplay within Vanuatu's government, the recognition has swung back and forth. In 2019 Vanuatu's minister of Foreign Affairs "confirmed Vanuatu’s support of Georgia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity" and effectively withdrew the recognition of Abkhazia.
