Is there a faster registration option in Uzbekistan?

Short answer

Registration itself is already 30 minutes. The expedited option is for capital and share changes — 2 hours instead of 16.

30 minRegistration of a company — in real time, and not more than thirty minutes (Registration Regulation, Para. 16 — lex.uz ↗)
16 hrsA capital increase or share transfer, ordinarily — sixteen working hours (Registration Regulation, Para. 23 — lex.uz ↗)
2 hrsThe same, expedited — two working hours (Registration Regulation, Para. 23 — lex.uz ↗)
1 BCVWhat expedition costs — an additional payment on top of the state duty, to the Public Services Agency’s off-budget fund (Registration Regulation, Para. 23 — lex.uz ↗)
RefundableAnd returned if the file is not in fact handled fast — where documents sent for expedited handling are not handled that way, the additional payment must be returned (Registration Regulation, Para. 23 — lex.uz ↗)
What the law provides

There is nothing to expedite about a first registration: the act’s own deadline is real time and not more than thirty minutes, and the System performs it without a human in the loop. The expedited option exists for the filings an officer must actually read — a change to the charter fund, or a share passing to someone new — which the ordinary timetable gives sixteen working hours. (Registration Regulation, Paras. 16, 23 — lex.uz ↗)

Expedited handling of those is at the applicant’s choice and costs one base calculation value beyond the state duty, paid into the Public Services Agency’s off-budget fund, and brings the review down to two working hours. The regulation adds the sentence that makes it a real undertaking rather than a fee: where documents submitted for expedited handling are not handled in the expedited manner, the additional payment is to be returned to the applicant.
