For the first time, Kyrgyzstan has begun producing its national currency independently, as announced by President Sadyr Japarov, according to 24.kg.

Previously, the country’s banknotes were produced abroad, incurring additional costs. Now, the republic is fully capable of meeting its own currency production needs and is even accepting orders from other countries.

In addition to currency production, Kyrgyzstan has reportedly also set up facilities for the production of national identification documents, including passports, ID cards, driver's licenses, and vehicle registration documents.

President Japarov emphasized that the new facility has already received an international certification, confirming its compliance with necessary standards.

According to him, the country is now receiving foreign orders both for currency printing and the production of state documents. He stressed that the security features of these products meet high international standards, while the cost of services remains competitive.
