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.
