The Social Fund of the Kyrgyz Republic has successfully completed the transition to a new automated system and updated numerous procedures related to pension appointments. In addition, preferential rates for insurance contributions have been introduced for certain categories of workers, as indicated in last year's report.

Since 2025, the Fund has implemented a new automated information system (AIS) designed for pensioners receiving payments through banks. The "Tunduk" platform is now actively interacting with 50 financial institutions and 17 government bodies, significantly improving data exchange speed and reducing the time taken to process applications.

Since August of last year, the mandatory notarization of copies of death documents required for survivor pension appointments has been abolished. It is now sufficient to provide the original for verification.

Additionally, the rates for insurance contributions have been revised:


Also, owners of agricultural plots larger than 1 hectare can now pay insurance contributions on a voluntary basis.

The Fund has also strengthened international cooperation in the field of pension provision. Within the framework of the Eurasian Economic Union, pensions have been appointed to 163 citizens of member countries, while Russia has appointed partial pensions to 134 Kyrgyz citizens.

In South Korea, 136 people received pension payments with an average amount of $3,789. Additionally, 375 requests for confirmation of work experience with Turkey were processed, leading to the appointment of the first pension under a bilateral agreement.

As of October 2025, an agreement with China came into effect, and a document was signed with Kazakhstan for data exchange to prevent double payments. Negotiations are ongoing with Germany, Austria, and Azerbaijan.
