Аnnotation: Double earthquakes are strong earthquakes close in time, place and magnitude. This is quite rare and difficult to explain events. Elucidation of the nature of their occurrence is important for forecasting. The method of seismic entropy, involving the results of studies of processes in the sources of strong earthquakes by other methods, allows to identify the nature of such earthquakes, to determine them as independent earthquakes with a specific tectonic relationship, to distinguish them from other cases of close but independent earthquakes, as well as to distinguish them against the background of foreshocks and aftershocks. Double earthquakes identified in the seismic systems located in different seismotectonic situations in the Altai, in the Kuril Islands, in the Central United States, but indeed their "homeland" is Pakistan. Characteristic features on which their classification is carried out are studied.
