The procedure for canceling a notary's writ of execution has changed
Changes have been made to the procedure for issuing and canceling writs of execution by notaries in Uzbekistan. According to the new procedure, the debtor may object to the writ of execution within 10 days from the date of receipt of a copy of the writ of execution or from the date of its issuance and request the notary to cancel the writ of execution.
Changes have been made to the procedure for canceling a notary's writ of execution. This is reported in the amendments made to the Regulation on the Procedure for Writing Writs of Execution by Notaries by Order No. 26-mh dated August 7, 2026. The document was state registered on August 7 under No. 3757-1 and comes into force from the date of its official publication.
According to the changes, the debtor has the right to express his objections to the writ of execution and apply to the notary who wrote it with a request to cancel it. For this, a period of 10 days is set from the date of receipt of a copy of the writ of execution or its writing.
In this case, the notary cancels the writ of execution and issues an appropriate decision. The decision explains that the collector can present his claim in the procedure for conducting a lawsuit.
A copy of the decision to cancel the writ of execution is handed over to the collector and the debtor or one of the debtor's family members. The document can also be sent by mail or other means of communication, including e-mail or mobile phone.
If the writ of execution was sent to the relevant department of the Compulsory Enforcement Bureau, the decision to cancel it is also sent to this body on the same day it is received.
If the debtor misses the established 10-day period without good reason, the notary refuses to cancel the writ of execution. However, such good reasons as illness, death of a close relative, being outside Uzbekistan are excluded. The notary's decision to refuse can be appealed to the court.
Also, if it is determined that the debt on which the writ of execution was issued arose or was calculated due to a technical malfunction in electronic systems, the writ of execution is canceled based on the application of the collector or debtor.
The changes also apply to the identification process. If a citizen's fingerprints cannot be scanned using special devices due to a physical disability, their identity will be verified using Face-ID.
