Over 300 million KGS collected via cashless payments at checkpoints

In 2025, the Sosnovka and Kara-Kol checkpoints collected over 300 million 266 thousand 484 KGS via cashless payments, which is 35% more than the previous year. Payments were made via QR codes, terminals and e-wallets.

The Ministry of Transport of the Kyrgyz Republic reported that the transition to cashless payments was initiated to improve service quality, eliminate the human factor and prevent corruption. Earlier, Minister Absattar Syrgabaev instructed the management of the Production and Innovation Centre to quickly switch to modern payment methods, eliminating cash payments.

Drivers can now pay using QR codes, on-site terminals or mobile apps with e-wallets. The widespread introduction of the system has made it possible to optimise the number of staff at checkpoints.

In addition, to prevent traffic jams, the lanes at Sosnovka and Kara-Kole have been widened and two additional lanes have been put into operation.
