This research aims to produce mathematics problems based on the PISA level content of Space and Shape with valid and practical procedures for developing problems and measure students' mathematics Problem-solving ability. The method used in this research is the development research method. This research consists of two stages, namely preliminary and formative evaluation stages which include self-evaluation, expert reviews, one-to-one, small groups, and field tests. Data collection techniques are based on walk-throughs, documents, tests, and questionnaires. After going through the one-to-one, small group, and descriptive validation stages, the questions were tested in the field test stage in class VIII of SMP Negeri 1 Padangsidimpuan. The results show the average value of mathematics problem-solving ability is 56.07 and it is categorized as Enough mathematics problem-solving ability, although there are still students who categorized in low. From these results, it can be said that developed PISA level questions are categorized as valid and practical criteria and have a potential effect on students' mathematics problem-solving abilities.
