BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 29. Kyrgyzstan plans to
automate the extension of pensions and survivor benefits for
students aged 16 to 23 as part of a new 100-day government reform
initiative.


This was reported by the press service of the Cabinet of
Ministers of Kyrgyzstan.


The measure was announced by Chairman of the Cabinet of
Ministers and Head of the Presidential Administration of Kyrgyzstan
Adylbek Kasymaliev.


"As part of the new challenge, full-fledged interdepartmental
cooperation will be established through the Tunduk system. The
Ministry of Science, Higher Education, and Innovation and the
Ministry of Education will create a single, up-to-date student
database, which will be integrated with the Social Fund and
Ministry of Labor systems. Now, student status will be instantly
verified online using a personal identification number, without the
need for individual participation," the statement reads.


Currently, students receiving such payments are required to
annually confirm their enrollment status by submitting paper
certificates to the Social Fund or the Ministry of Labour. Failure
to provide documents on time may result in suspension of
payments.


According to the government, the main obstacle has been the lack
of integration between databases of educational institutions and
social agencies.


As part of the reform, relevant ministries will create a unified
database of students, which will be integrated with the systems of
the Social Fund and the Ministry of Labour through the “Tunduk”
platform.







The student status will be verified online using a personal
identification number without direct involvement of citizens.


The new mechanism will allow more than 18,000 students to extend
social payments automatically within one to two minutes, while
reducing risks of document falsification and administrative
errors.


The Cabinet of Ministers set a 100-day deadline for implementing
both digital initiatives.


Meanwhile, the automation of extending social payments for
students through the “Tunduk” system could significantly improve
the efficiency of Kyrgyzstan’s social support mechanisms and
strengthen the transition toward proactive digital public
services.


The reform reflects a broader trend of integrating state
databases to reduce administrative procedures and ensure that
citizens receive services based on verified information rather than
through repeated document submissions.
