II. Market Background

Uzbekistan is the most populous country in Central Asia, with a population of 35 million—accounting for half of the total population of the five Central Asian nations. Covering an area of 447,400 square kilometers, Uzbekistan has signed bilateral free trade agreements with 11 member states of the Commonwealth of Independent States, exempting each other from import tariffs. The official languages are Uzbek and Russian, and the country has long served as a crossroads of diverse cultures along the ancient Silk Road. Uzbekistan is rich in natural resources and boasts economic strength second only to Russia, Ukraine, and Kazakhstan. As a landlocked nation located in central Central Asia, Uzbekistan borders the Aral Sea to the northwest and shares borders with Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Afghanistan. Its strategic geographic location places it at the intersection of key transportation routes connecting East and West, as well as North and South, making it a vibrant hub for international connections and cultural exchange. Long-term political stability and sound economic policies have enabled Uzbekistan’s economy to maintain steady, rapid growth over many years.

2017 marked the beginning of Uzbekistan’s reform era, ushering the country into a new age of openness and reform. Under the leadership of President Mirziyoyev, Uzbekistan deepened domestic reforms while actively pursuing external openness and cooperation, capturing widespread attention from regional countries and the international community. As a vital transit country along the “Silk Road Economic Belt” and one of the founding members of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization, Uzbekistan’s stability and development play a crucial role in advancing both the SCO and the broader “Belt and Road” initiative. Rail transport remains Uzbekistan’s most important mode of transportation, handling approximately 60% of the nation’s freight volume and 80% of its import and export cargo.

The first international freight train from Lianyungang to Tashkent, Uzbekistan—covering a distance of 5,500 kilometers and taking roughly 10 days—is currently the longest international rail route from China’s coastal ports to Central Asia. However, Uzbekistan’s infrastructure remains relatively underdeveloped.

In recent years, as the economy has grown steadily, the government has intensified its efforts to upgrade infrastructure, including the construction and renovation of roads and supporting services, the electrification of railways and expansion of the rail network, the development of thermal and hydroelectric power plants, as well as the modernization of telecommunications networks and water supply systems. Uzbekistan has also opened up to foreign investors, allowing them to participate in local infrastructure projects. The primary agency responsible for infrastructure development is the Public Utilities Agency of Uzbekistan, whose main duties include participating in the formulation and implementation of national policies related to public services, overseeing the execution of presidential decrees, cabinet orders, and government directives concerning social and public utilities, and providing training to enhance the professional competence of personnel working in the public services sector.

In May 2018, President Mirziyoyev of Uzbekistan signed more than 100 contracts with China, totaling US$23 billion. Uzbekistan is actively attracting foreign investment through the development of industrial parks. Today, Uzbekistan has 14 industrial parks, including 7 free economic zones and 7 industrial zones dedicated to specific industries. Local governments offer preferential policies to businesses operating within these parks, such as tariff reductions and tax incentives—with the duration of these benefits varying depending on the scale of investment.
