Kyrgyzstan Directs Mobile Device Registration Fees to National Security Committee

The Kyrgyz government is expanding the types of funds that state bodies and institutions can hold in special accounts within the Unified Treasury Account system. Amendments to a May 31, 2025, cabinet resolution introduce new revenue streams for specific state committees and ministries.

Notably, fees collected for the registration of mobile devices within the state identification system will now be channeled to a special account managed by the State Committee for National Security (GKNB). The GKNB will also receive funds generated from paid services related to the Unified System for Accounting for External Migration.

Significant adjustments also affect the Ministry of Transport and Communications. Its departments will now be able to collect fees for special cargo road use, vehicle weight and dimension checks, compensation for damage caused by heavy transport, and land leases within road rights-of-way. These funds will be designated as income for the respective transport agencies and their subordinate institutions.

Additionally, water users will contribute at least 20 percent of their income from products grown using water-saving irrigation systems. The resolution, which takes effect 10 days after publication, also allows for deductions from subordinate organizations of the Ministry of Transport and Communications to its central apparatus.
