Dear Sir or Madam:
I have acted as counsel to Alliance International Fund (the
"Fund") in connection with the preparation of Post-Effective
Amendment No. 23 (the "Amendment") to the Fund's Registration
Statement.
In my view, the above-described Amendment does not contain
disclosures which would render it ineligible to become effective
pursuant to paragraph (b) of Rule 485 under the Securities Act of
1933.
Sincerely,
/s/ Domenick Pugliese

Dear Sirs:
We have acted as counsel for Alliance International
Fund, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Company"), in
connection with the registration of an additional 5,225,171
shares of beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share, of
the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(the "Act").
As counsel for the Company, we have participated in
the preparation of Post-Effective Amendment No. 23 to the
Company's Registration Statement on Form N-1A under the Act
(File No. 2-70428) relating to such additional shares and
have examined and relied upon corporate records of the
Company and other documents and certificates as to factual
matters as we have deemed to be necessary to render the
opinion set forth below.
Based on that examination we are of the opinion
that the 5,225,171 additional shares of beneficial interest
of the Company being registered by Post-Effective Amendment
No. 23 to the Company's Registration Statement are duly
authorized and unissued shares, and when such shares have
been duly sold, issued and paid for as contemplated in the
Company's Prospectus forming a part of its Registration
Statement under the Act, such shares will have been validly
and legally issued (assuming that none of such shares is
sold at a time when such sale would cause the Company to
have outstanding more than the number of shares of
beneficial interest authorized to be issued by the Company's
Declaration of Trust) and will be fully paid and non-
assessable shares of beneficial interest of the Company
under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
<PAGE>
(assuming that the sale price of each share is not less than
the par value thereof).
Our opinion above stated is expressed as members of
the bar of the State of New York.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion
with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to
above-referenced Post-Effective Amendment No. 23 to the
Company's Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Seward & Kissel
