Licensing and authorization procedures in Uzbekistan to be reduced and simplified

At the meeting chaired by President Shavkat Mirziyoyev on April 4, the need to run an electronic queue system in all centers and to create applications allowing to use public services on mobile phones was emphasized.

Instructions were given on development of standard projects of buildings of public services centers, building them on the basis of public-private partnership in accordance with modern requirements and providing benefits to investors participating in such projects.

It is known that 35 types of licenses and permits in the sphere of entrepreneurship are issued by the government. Such excessive centralization hampers the development of business activity. In this regard instructions were given on sharp reduction and simplification of licensing and authorization procedures in accordance with the State program “Year of supporting active entrepreneurship, innovative ideas and technologies”.
