Under Presidential Resolution No. PP-252, dated 7 July 2026, Uzbekistan’s National Committee for Sustainable Urbanization and Housing Market Development is required, from 1 November, to maintain a unified electronic register of master plans and store their digital copies.
What changes from 1 November
Under the resolution, master plans must be registered in the unified electronic register. Unregistered master plans may not be implemented, and urban planning, construction, investment or other activity may not be carried out on their basis.
The provision concerns master plans specifically. The resolution sets it out separately from its rules on master plans for populated areas.
Digital tracking for construction
The resolution also provides for a unified identifier for prospective development areas, a digital project passport and a digital passport for capital construction facilities on the Uy-joy unified urbanization platform. These tools are to be integrated with the Transparent Construction system.
A separate rule has applied since 1 October 2026: a construction start permit may not be issued without an identification number in the Unified Identifier. The resolution also instructs the relevant agencies to submit a draft procedure for issuing identifiers and maintaining digital passports to the Cabinet of Ministers.
What market participants should keep in mind
The register and digital identifiers establish a common way to track planning documents and construction stages. When choosing a home, it remains useful to verify the documents for the specific project and its current permits through official sources. The resolution sets general requirements; it does not replace checking the documents for an individual property.
What this means for UY TUT readers
When comparing new-build homes, people can search UY TUT listings; the status of a specific project’s master plan and permits should be confirmed through official sources.
