Country brief

How identity verification works in Uzbekistan.

The fraud surface and the frameworks an engineering or compliance lead needs before scoping an integration.
Fraud landscape
Three pressures shape Uzbek identity fraud: mule-account attacks exploiting the rapidly growing mobile-payments sector and the CBU's open-banking push, document forgery across the older laminated ID format still in circulation, and cross-border AML risk through the Central Asian remittance corridor. Didit scores 200+ real-time fraud signals on every session, face morph, replay, injection, document tampering, device intelligence, IP geolocation.
Compliance frameworks
  • Law on Combating Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing (LCMLTF), amended 2022
  • Law on Personal Data 2019
  • Law on the Central Bank of Uzbekistan
  • Law on Banks and Banking Activity (amended 2021)
  • EAG (Eurasian Group on Combating Money Laundering and Financing of Terrorism), regional FATF-style body
  • FATF 40 recommendations
Regulators

These are the supervisors a Uzbekistan verification flow has to answer to. One Didit hosted flow + one audit log covers every one of them, no separate integration per agency.
  • CBU

    Central Bank of Uzbekistan (Markaziy Bank), supervises all commercial banks, payment institutions, and e-money issuers. Issues KYC/CDD requirements and AML/CFT implementing regulations for the financial sector under the Law on the Central Bank.

Validate inputs against global identity infrastructure.

  • There is no public government database validation API for Uzbekistan currently exposed as a standalone Didit service, the Ministry of Internal Affairs civil registry and the unified state citizens' registry (Yagona Identifikatsiya Tizimi) do not currently offer a public consumer API open to third-party integrators.

FAQ

Common questions about Uzbekistan.

What does Didit ship?

Didit is the infrastructure layer for identity and fraud. One Application Programming Interface (API), 25+ composable modules across four product lines:

  • User Verification (KYC, know your customer), Identity Document Verification, liveness, face match, Anti-Money Laundering (AML) screening, Internet Protocol (IP) analysis. $0.33 per full bundle.
  • Business Verification (KYB, know your business), registry, Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO), officers, entity AML, plus a linked KYC session per UBO.
  • Transaction Monitoring, real-time rule engine, case management, Suspicious Activity Report (SAR) workflow.
  • Wallet Screening (KYT, know your transaction), on-chain wallet risk at $0.15 per check, or bring your own screening provider and run it inside Didit.

Compose any module into a workflow with the visual no-code builder, ship in 5 minutes, 500 verifications free every month, forever.

How is Didit different from a single-product Know Your Customer (KYC) vendor?

Most identity vendors sell one slice, a KYC check, an Anti-Money Laundering (AML) list, a wallet screen. Didit ships the infrastructure underneath all of them, and the gap shows up on six axes:

  • Pricing. Public price on every module, $0.33 for a full KYC, 500 verifications free every month, no minimums, no contracts. Single-product vendors hide six-figure minimums behind a sales call.
  • Access. Sandbox in one click, self-serve from day one, production keys on signup. Single-product vendors gate the sandbox behind a contract, months to evaluate.
  • Developer experience. Public docs, a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Claude Code and Cursor, and native Software Development Kits (SDKs) for Web, iOS, Android, React Native, and Flutter. Integrate in 5 minutes with an AI agent or in a working afternoon by hand.
  • User experience. Highest pass rates in the market, sub-2-second end-to-end inference, country-specialised capture flows, 48+ languages out of the box.
  • Flexibility. One /v3/ Application Programming Interface (API) composes 25+ modules across KYC, Know Your Business (KYB), Transaction Monitoring, and Wallet Screening (KYT, know your transaction). A KYB session spawns a linked KYC for every Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO); a flagged transaction spawns a step-up KYC remediation, same session, same webhook contract, same audit trail. Single-product vendors sell one shape of KYC and stop there.
  • AI-era fraud. 200+ real-time fraud signals scored on every session, deepfake, injection, synthetic-ID, document forgery, face-morph, device intelligence, replay. Single-product vendors treat deepfake and injection detection as roadmap items, not defaults.

Common in fintech and crypto, the same architecture fits marketplaces, iGaming, mobility, and any vertical where you need to know who someone is and what they are doing.

What does it cost? Is anything actually free?

500 verifications free every month, forever, on every account. No credit card. No sales call. No expiry.

Above the free tier, every module has a public per-success price on didit.me/pricing, $0.33 per full KYC bundle, $0.15 per Identity Document Verification, $0.15 per Wallet Screening, $0.20 per Anti-Money Laundering (AML) Screening, $0.10 per liveness, $0.05 per face match, $0.03 per Internet Protocol (IP) analysis.

Pay-as-you-go, no minimums, no overage surprises. Volume discounts kick in automatically as you grow.

Which Uzbek regulator covers identity verification on a digital onboarding?

Five regulators sit on top of every Uzbek identity-verification flow:

  • Central Bank of Uzbekistan (CBU / Markaziy Bank), supervises all banks, payment institutions, and e-money issuers. Sets KYC/CDD obligations under the Law on Banks and Banking Activity (amended 2021).
  • Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU / Moliya Razvedkasi) under the General Prosecutor's Office, Uzbekistan's AML/CFT authority. Receives Suspicious Transaction Reports under the Law on Combating Money Laundering and Terrorism Financing (LCMLTF), amended 2022.
  • Ministry of Internal Affairs (MIA), issues the national ID Card and biometric passport, and operates the civil registry.
  • Agency for Personal Data Protection under the Ministry of Justice, enforces the Law on Personal Data 2019 for all identity data processing.
  • Department for Combating Economic Crimes, General Prosecutor's Office, prosecutes financial crime and maintains the designated-persons watchlist.

Didit ships the hosted flow + the audit log + the watchlist coverage to satisfy all of them at the same time, same POST /v3/session/ workflow, same JSON report, same SOC 2 Type 1 + ISO/IEC 27001 evidence pack.

Does Didit support the PINFL personal identification number on Uzbek onboarding?

Yes. The 9-digit Personal Identification Number for Legal Entities and Individuals (PINFL) is OCR-parsed from the Uzbek ID Card on every capture and surfaced on the JSON report alongside all other document fields.

  • The PINFL is the universal Uzbek tax and civil registry identifier, every bank and fintech cross-checks it during onboarding.
  • Today, the PINFL flows through to the customer's compliance pipeline so it can be cross-checked against the in-house customer record.
  • An authoritative-source lookup against the Ministry of Internal Affairs unified state citizens' registry (Yagona Identifikatsiya Tizimi) is on the upcoming Database Validation roadmap.
How long does it take to integrate Didit in Uzbekistan?

5 minutes to a working sandbox, a weekend to a production flow.

  • Sign up at business.didit.me, grab an API key, call POST /v3/session/ with a workflow_id that wires ID Verification + Active Liveness + Face Match + AML, done.
  • AI-agent path: paste the integration prompt at docs.didit.me/integration/integration-prompt into Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Devin, Aider, or Replit Agent. The agent provisions the application, builds the workflow, wires the webhook, and runs a smoke test.
  • Five SDKs share the same session model: Web, iOS, Android, React Native, Flutter.

The first 500 verifications every month are free, forever, pilot the full Uzbekistan stack at zero cost before flipping production traffic.

What does the Uzbekistan verification cost end-to-end?

Per-module public pricing, pay only for what runs on the session:

  • ID Verification, $0.15 per document check.
  • Passive Liveness, $0.10. Active Liveness, $0.15.
  • Face Match 1:1, $0.05. Face Search 1:N, free.
  • AML Screening, $0.20 per check. Ongoing AML, $0.07 per user / year.

The full KYC bundle (Identity + Passive Liveness + Face Match + IP Analysis) is `$0.33`, same anchor price worldwide, no Uzbekistan surcharge. 500 verifications free every month, no credit card. Volume discounts auto-apply above the free tier; Enterprise adds a custom Master Services Agreement (MSA) and data-residency choice.
