Key Findings

Business Environment

Uzbekistan ranks 154th out of 185 economies in the Ease of Doing Business index.
The index is based on the simple average of percentile rankings across 10 topics, including starting a business, dealing with construction permits, getting electricity, registering property, getting credit, protecting investors, paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing contracts, and resolving insolvency.
The distance to frontier measure shows how far an economy is from the best practices in each indicator set. Uzbekistan has made some progress but still lags behind many economies.

Starting a Business

Starting a business in Uzbekistan requires 6 procedures, takes 12 days, and costs 3.8% of income per capita.
The paid-in minimum capital requirement is 27.4% of income per capita.
Uzbekistan has implemented reforms to reduce the number of procedures, the cost of registration, and the minimum capital requirement.

Comparative Analysis

Uzbekistan performs worse than many comparator economies, including Kazakhstan, Kyrgyz Republic, and Moldova, in most business indicators.
The best performer globally in most areas is New Zealand or Singapore, which have fewer procedures, less time, and lower costs.

Key Reforms in Uzbekistan
