Kyrgyz President Sadyr Japarov has signed a decree amending regulations governing vehicle technical inspections. The changes introduce a system where vehicle inspections will be divided between two state-operated companies. This restructuring aims to improve the efficiency and accessibility of the inspection process for vehicle owners across the country. The new regulations are set to take effect on July 1, 2026, providing time for implementation and transition. This split is expected to increase competition and potentially lower costs for consumers. The move signifies a change in approach to vehicle safety and regulatory oversight in the Kyrgyz Republic.
