How much will it cost to prepare a child for school in Tashkent in 2026?
Time marches on inexorably, phone models, fashion trends, and school backpack designs change, but one thing remains constant: preparing for school is an integral part of life for most families.
August is traditionally one of the busiest months for families with schoolchildren. If you're preparing just one child, expenses can still be spread out gradually. However, when there are several students, it's no longer a matter of a few purchases for September 1st; it's essential to plan the family budget for the coming months in advance.
When parents begin creating their school basket, the final cost is typically several million soums higher than expected. Moreover, the final cost can vary significantly depending on where they shop.
Approximate contents of an average school basket in Tashkent:
In practice, parents rarely limit themselves to one shirt and one pair of shoes. Most often, they purchase two or three shirts for a week, a change of shoes, an extra set of sportswear, and enough notebooks for at least the first quarter. First-graders deserve special attention. In addition to uniforms and stationery, parents buy bows, white knee-high socks, party accessories, craft folders, and school assembly kits. These "little things" easily add another 150,000-300,000 soums to the school budget.
So, even without factoring in expensive brands, preparing one child for school in Tashkent costs approximately 3.5 million soums, and for two children, this amount can exceed 7 million soums.
With all these school expenses, the budget can sometimes be overwhelmed, and this is where Payme's installment plan for goods and services comes in handy.
From August 3rd to September 10th, a special offer is available: Payme offers the opportunity to purchase up to 5 million soums in installments at 0% interest and pay it off in three equal installments over three months, without any overpayments.
