Kyrgyzstan expands businesses required to link to fiscal software with data transfer

A government resolution dated 4 November 2026 has expanded the list of business activities that must connect to fiscal software with data transmission, the State Tax Service of Kyrgyzstan said. The requirements will be introduced in stages and will cover catering businesses, hotels, baths and saunas, gas stations, medical organisations, shops and certain retail categories.

The first stage took effect on 1 August 2026 in Bishkek, Manas and Osh. From 1 February 2027, the rules extend to Tokmok, Karakol, Balykchy and several districts, while the final stages cover larger shops and those in shopping centres. Full transition is planned by 1 February 2029.

The measure follows a pilot project run from September 2025 to August 2026. Its results showed that average daily revenue of participants rose significantly after connection, which the tax service said reflects fuller recording of cash transactions and greater business transparency.
