The order will apply to:

- payments for all types of state duty and administrative fines;

- payments to the Electronic Trading Platform "E-auksion" and the Automated Information System "K-Savdo";

In the future, this list may include additional types of payments.

At the same time, for the period until 1 May 2023, in the city of Tashkent, as a legal experiment, the practice of providing services for withdrawing cash at points of sale and providing services covered by a network of virtual cash desks is being introduced.

The resolution instructs to gradually complete work on the mutual integration of HUMO and UZCARD payment systems, in particular ATMs - by May 2023, payment terminal systems - by the end of 2023.
