Kyrgyzstan has completed two new reforms under its 100-day government accelerator program, introducing digital systems for customs and public services as authorities push to reduce paperwork, speed up approvals and expand the use of technology across state institutions and business processes.
The results were announced by Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers Adylbek Kasymaliev during a government meeting reviewing progress under the reform initiative launched in January 2026.
The first reform focused on simplifying goods identification procedures and accelerating the issuance of customs clearance permits.
Previously, customs processing involved extensive manual work, repeated coordination between government agencies and long review periods. Officials said document verification could take up to 14 working days, and in some cases as long as one month.
In 2025, authorities issued 16,314 permit-related documents, including 2,280 licenses and more than 14,000 product clarifications related to export controls and Eurasian Economic Union regulations.
Under the reform, business procedures were streamlined, regulations updated and government agencies integrated into a single digital window. As a result, businesses engaged in foreign trade can now submit applications electronically through one platform without repeatedly contacting different agencies.
A key part of the modernization was the launch of ai.trade.kg, a digital platform using artificial intelligence to analyze product characteristics and provide recommendations when reviewing certain permit applications.
Officials said electronic document exchange, automated procedures and digital signatures helped reduce the processing time for clarifications, identification and expert conclusions from 14 working days to three.
The government said the changes are expected to speed up customs clearance, reduce administrative costs for businesses and improve transparency, with applicants able to monitor each stage of the process online in real time.
The second reform focused on simplifying medical examinations for people of pre-conscription age during initial military registration. Previously, examinations were carried out at district military offices and required a large amount of paperwork, while medical personnel had to be pulled away from their main duties.
Over the past 100 days, authorities developed a digital examination model through the Sanarip Clinic medical information system. The platform allows examinations, medical conclusions and military commission decisions to be completed electronically, while also enabling interagency data exchange.
A status-check feature was also added to the Tunduk mobile application. The pilot project was carried out at the Chui Regional General Medical Practice Center, replacing the previous district military office-based process.
During the pilot phase, 788 pre-conscription candidates completed medical examinations digitally, with all documents processed and transferred electronically.
Officials said the project helped reduce the burden on medical staff, eliminate paper documentation and improve transparency and efficiency.
Following the pilot’s completion, Kyrgyz authorities said the model will now be gradually expanded across the country.
The reforms were first announced by Kasymaliev on January 14, 2026, as part of a broader push to accelerate digital transformation and improve government services.
