Introduction to collecting debt in Uzbekistan

Do you have a hard time collecting money that people owe you in Uzbekistan? We can help you get paid by your Uzbek customers. The person who owes money is called the debtor, and the person who gave them the money is called the creditor. If the creditor collects the debt themselves, it's called first-party collection. If they give it to someone else to collect, it's third-party collections.

The debt collection process in Uzbekistan

Uzbekistan's debt collection process usually happens in more than one step.

The image below shows the steps we take to collect debt in Uzbekistan:

1 Upload your claim:

If you don't want to pay off your debt on your own, you'll need to find someone to assist you. One way to do this is by submitting your request on a website like Debitura. By using our service, we'll provide you with three quotes from local partners in the Asian country that is relevant to your situation. The best part is that this service is completely free and without any hidden obligations.

2 Amicable collection:

When trying to collect a debt, the first step is usually to send friendly reminders to the person who owes the money. These reminders can be sent through email, text message, regular mail, and other ways of communicating that are available in the country where the debtor lives. The goal is to get the debtor to either pay the debt or agree to a plan to pay it back. Debitura offers a service where you only have to pay a small fee if they are able to collect the debt for you. This means that there is no risk for you when using Debitura's amicable collection service.

3 Evaluation:

If the person you are trying to get money from (called the debtor) has not paid you back after trying to talk it out nicely, it's time to think about what to do next. We will look at how much money you are trying to get back, how likely it is that the debtor will pay, and other important things to help you decide what to do. There are three common options to choose from:

A: Surveillance:

If the amount of money you are trying to get back from someone is less than 2,000-5,000 euros, it is usually not worth it to go through a long and expensive legal process. In this situation, we suggest using "debt surveillance". This means that we will keep contacting the person who owes you money and try to find a friendly solution that works for both of you.

B: Legal collections:

We suggest that you begin a legal procedure for bigger requests. The way it works will vary depending on what you are asking for and how big your request is. Usually, it will take about a year and a half for the whole process to finish.

C: Debt enforcement:

If the person you are trying to collect money from has admitted that they owe you or a judge has ruled in your favor, you can ask the bailiff's court to help you get the money you are owed. This means that the court will use different methods to make sure the debtor pays you what they owe.

Insolvency proceedings in Uzbekistan

The economic risk in Uzbekistan

Our conclusion based on the economic risk factors, is that the economic risk in Uzbekistan is very high (6 out of 6). An economic risk of 6 out of 6 is high in Asia.

GDP and economic growth are critical drivers for economic risk.
The GDP of Uzbekistan is 69,24 bn. USD (2021), growing by 7,42% per year.

In terms of the size of its economy, Uzbekistan ranks #71 out of 183 countries and has a medium-sized economy.

Having a view at the growth rate, it is ranked #40 out of 183 countries and is therefore considered a fast-growing economy.

GDP per capita is 1983 USD, ranking Uzbekistan number #137 out of 183 countries. This means the purchasing power of citizens in Uzbekistan is low compared to the rest of the world.

You can see a more throughout picture of GDP and economic growth in Uzbekistan in the table below:

GDP and economic growthLatest value
Economic growth: the rate of change of real GDP7,42%
Gross Domestic Product, billions of U.S. dollars69,24
GDP per capita, current U.S. dollars1983,06
GDP per capita, Purchasing Power Parity7734,83

Another significant influencer for the economic risk score is the inflation rate and the interest rates. You can see a more throughout overview of monetary data points in Uzbekistan in the table below:

Monetary KPI'sLatest value
Business credit interest rate, percent21,4%

Businesses has an interest rate which is 21,4%.

The business environment risk in Uzbekistan

Our analysis shows that the business environment risk in Uzbekistan is very high (6 out of 6), which is a high risk score in Asia.

Economic freedom and rights determine the business environment risk in a country. Take a look at the important facts for Uzbekistan in the table below:

Economic freedom indexLatest value
Property rights index (0-100)58
Freedom from corruption index (0-100)31
Fiscal freedom index (0-100)92
Business freedom index (0-100)74
Monetary freedom index (0-100)60,3
Trade freedom index (0-100)55
Investment freedom index (0-100)20
Financial freedom index (0-100)20
Economic freedom, overall index (0-100)58

As you can see above, the property rights index is 58 in Uzbekistan, which is considered quite low in Asia.

The business freedom index is based on 10 indicators, using data from the World Bank’s Doing Business study. The Index is 74 in Uzbekistan, a pretty average score for a country in Asia.

Uzbekistan's overall economic freedom index is 58 out of 100 and is based on factors such as the rule of law, regulatory efficiency, and market openness.

The political risk in Uzbekistan

The political risk in Uzbekistan is very high, with a score of 6/6. This is a high political risk score in Asia.

The governance and political stability indicators are important drivers for political risk. An overview of Uzbekistan can be seen in the graphs below:

Governance and political stability indicators Latest value
Rule of law index (-2.5 weak; 2.5 strong)-0,89
Government effectiveness index (-2.5 weak; 2.5 strong)-0,2
Control of corruption (-2.5 weak; 2.5 strong)-0,81
Political stability index (-2.5 weak; 2.5 strong)-0,24
Corruption Perceptions Index, 100 = no corruption28

The rule of law index analyses to which extent agents have confidence in and abide by the rules of society, in particular the quality of contract enforcement, property rights, the quality of the courts, and the police's ability to enforce court orders.

When transacting business in a country, the rule of law index is critical as it describes your ability to enforce commercial contracts.

In Uzbekistan, the rule of law index is at -0,89 points, with the score going from -2.5 (weak) to 2.5 (strong). Uzbekistan has, therefore, a very low rule of law index, which means it is often close to impossible to enforce your contracts. We, therefore, recommend avoiding credits and recommend charging upfront payment instead.

The commercial risk in Uzbekistan

In Uzbekistan, the commercial risk score is 2/4, which in our model is a low score. This low commercial risk score is pretty average compared to the average in Asia.

The commercial risk is influenced by a country's international trade relationships. You can see some of the key facts for Uzbekistan in the table below:

International trade and investment Latest value
Exports of goods and services as percent of GDP23,74%
Exports of goods and services, annual growth12,67%
Imports of goods and services as percent of GDP40,14%
Trade balance as percent of GDP-16,4
Trade balance, billion USD-11.37
Foreign exchange reserves, billion currency units35.38

Uzbekistan has a foreign exchange reserve of 35.38 bn. USD.

Uzbekistan has a negative trade balance of -16,4% of GDP. This means that Uzbekistan imports more goods and services than the country exports.

The annual growth of exports of goods and services has been growing 12,67% annually - now 23,74% of GDP. Import of goods and services represents 40,14% of the GDP in Uzbekistan.

The financing risk in Uzbekistan

We have calculated the financing risk to be 4/4, which equals a high risk. A high financing risk score is high for countries in Asia.

The country's banking system, efficiency, and stability influence the financing risk. You can find the extra information for Uzbekistan in the table below:

Banking system efficiency and stabilityLatest value
Interest rates on bank credit to the private sector21,4%
Real interest rate: Bank lending rate minus inflation6,91%
Index of legal rights for creditors and borrowers (0 = weak to 12 = strong)6
Credit information sharing index, 0 (low) - 8 (high)7

In Uzbekistan, the credit information sharing index is 7 on a scale from 0 (low) to 8 (high). The consequence of that number, is that the access and quality of credit information available in Uzbekistan is medium-high.

This makes it easy for you to understand the credit risk of your counterpart in Uzbekistan. You would be able to find a good local credit rating agency that can help you analyse the creditworthiness of your specific customers.

Your rights as a creditor are 6 out of 12 and, therefore, weak.

The high financing risk for creditors also impacts the high interest rate in the private sector of 21,4%.
