If the waste fee is delayed, the electricity will be cut off
Starting from August 1, 2025, the electricity supply of subscribers who do not make timely payments for waste services across Uzbekistan will be temporarily restricted. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
This new regulation is being implemented based on the Law No. 1044 adopted on March 7, 2025. The aim is to strengthen the discipline of payment for waste collection and disposal services.
According to the new system, by the 3rd of each month, information about delinquent subscribers will be transferred from the "Clean Space" electronic billing system to the billing system of the "Regional Electric Networks" joint-stock company. Then, by the 5th, SMS notifications will be sent to delinquent subscribers via the short number "2100".
After the warning, subscribers will be given an additional 5-day period to eliminate the debt. If the payment is not made within this period, the ability to pay for electricity will be automatically temporarily restricted.
Once the payment is made, the restriction will be automatically lifted. This measure will apply to debts related to waste services formed starting from July 1, 2025.
Debts up to June 30, 2025, will not be included in this regulation. Sanitary cleaning enterprises are responsible for ensuring accuracy and fairness in calculating payments for waste services.
If services are not provided within the specified time and quality, subscribers have the right to request a recalculation of the payments for the days not provided. If residents have complaints or suggestions regarding the quality of waste services or billing, they can contact the "Waste Management and Circular Economy Development Agency" at the short number 1205, available 24 hours a day.
