In Uzbekistan, it may be possible to reduce the accreditation fee fourfold
In Uzbekistan, opportunities to reduce the established base fee for state accreditation of educational organizations have been expanded.
According to additions registered by the Ministry of Justice, the fee amount may be reduced up to fourfold based on an application from an educational organization.
Amendments were made to the regulation on the fee amounts and calculation procedures for conducting comprehensive and special state accreditation of educational organizations. The document was registered on October 31, 2026, under No. 3739-1.
To reduce the fee, at least one of five conditions must be met.
The first basis is the need to accredit relevant educational programs to fulfill tasks specified in documents of the President of Uzbekistan, the Head of the Presidential Administration, or the Cabinet of Ministers.
The second condition applies to educational organizations that have had at least 50 percent of their current educational programs accredited by organizations included in the register of accreditation organizations and recognized in Uzbekistan. In this case, there must be an opportunity to reduce the volume of evaluation work by using the results of previously conducted accreditations.
The third basis is the availability of the opportunity to conduct special state accreditation remotely.
The fourth condition provides for submitting an application for special state accreditation for 10 or more educational programs at the same time.
The fifth basis relates to a reduction in the actual volume of accreditation work in cases where there is no need to re-evaluate the material and technical, personnel, or other infrastructure common to several related educational programs.
Thus, the new rules allow for a reduction in the base fee, taking into account the nature of the accreditation, previously obtained evaluation results, and the actual volume of work to be performed.
