Kyrgyzstan Parliament Digitalizes Law Submission Process, Sends First Law Electronically to President

Kyrgyzstan's parliament, the Jogorku Kenesh, has initiated a significant step in its digitalization drive by transitioning to an electronic format for submitting laws to the president. This move aims to streamline document flow and modernize parliamentary procedures.

Speaker Marlen Mamataliev officially launched this new phase on June 4, 2026, by affixing his electronic signature to an adopted law and transmitting it to the president for review. Henceforth, all draft laws and accompanying documents will be submitted to the parliament in electronic format, and subsequently signed and sent to the president digitally.

To facilitate this transition, relevant amendments have been made to the Jogorku Kenesh's regulations. This digital initiative builds upon previous efforts to enhance accessibility and transparency. The parliament has already established the capability for interested parties to participate in committee meetings online, a practice that is now conducted on a regular basis.

Furthermore, the parliament's public reception services have been fully digitized. Citizen inquiries and appeals are now received and processed electronically, with the assistance of artificial intelligence, further enhancing efficiency and accessibility for the public.
