TASHKENT, Uzbekistan, May 12. The volume of
public services in Uzbekistan has increased tenfold and exceeded 61
million as part of ongoing administrative reforms, President
Shavkat Mirziyoyev said during a presentation on measures to reduce
bureaucracy in the public services sector, Trend reports.
According to the president, around 80% of public services are
currently provided online, while more than 2,000 mandatory
requirements in the business sector were abolished in 2025
alone.
At the same time, Mirziyoyev noted that excessive procedures,
paperwork, and duplicating requirements still remain within the
system. Currently, state bodies perform 5,650 functions, while more
than 42,000 mandatory business-related requirements and 1,041
public services remain in force.
“To transform Uzbekistan into a territory free from excessive
bureaucracy by 2030,” the country launched the “Elimination of
Bureaucracy - 2030” program jointly with the United Arab Emirates,
the president said.
Under the initiative, Uzbekistan plans to reduce the functions
of state bodies by 30%, optimize up to 20% of business
requirements, and increase the share of electronic public services
to more than 90%.
