Specifically, plans include the introduction of remote digital identification, integration with the state passport register, and the ability for foreign investors to open brokerage accounts online. The identification process will be reduced to 15 minutes, significantly enhancing the country’s investment appeal.
In addition, the government plans to digitise health certificates: the processing time will be reduced from 8 to 4 days, the number of visits to medical facilities from 5 to 2, and a single online register will be introduced, along with the option to check status via the ‘Tündük’ mobile app. It is estimated that this will save 6–12 million KGS annually.
The meeting also reviewed socio-economic indicators for January–February 2026. The country’s GDP stood at 264.1 billion KGS, an increase of 8.8% compared to the same period in 2025. The highest growth was recorded in construction (23.2%), industry (15.5%) and services (6.7%). Investment in fixed capital reached 17.8 billion KGS, ensuring an 11.5% increase in domestic sources of financing.
