EAEU trade with Uzbekistan tops $11 billion in first seven months of 2026
Trade between the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) countries and Uzbekistan exceeded $11 billion in January–July 2026, according to the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC). Uzbekistan accounted for 66% of the union's trade with CIS states that are not EAEU members.
Bakytzhan Sagintayev, Chairman of the EEC Board, said Uzbekistan is the union's main trading partner among non-EAEU CIS states. He said trade reached $17.4 billion in 2025, up 1.8 times from 2020.
At Uzbekistan's initiative, an international agreement on exchanging customs information is being prepared to speed up customs operations. The sides are also working to remove trade barriers through a joint review of technical regulation systems. The issues were discussed on 22 October in Tashkent, when Sagintayev met President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. The 2024–2026 joint action plan ends this year, and a new plan to 2030 is being drafted.
