Kyrgyzstan Sets Maximum Retail Coal Prices for Households

Kyrgyzstan's State Antimonopoly Service has set maximum retail prices for coal sold to the public. According to the agency, the measures are aimed at keeping coal affordable, preventing unjustified price increases for this socially important good, and ensuring that the set price limits are observed in retail sales.

The temporary state regulation of coal prices will remain in force until January 18, 2027, inclusive. Citizens who find that the set maximum retail prices are being exceeded, or who have complaints or inquiries about coal sales, can call the agency's hotline or contact its territorial offices in Batken, Talas, Osh, Chuy, Issyk-Kul, Naryn and Jalal-Abad regions. Separate departments for Osh and Bishkek also accept such appeals.
