Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.com) -- Government resolution approved the Administrative Regulations for the provision of public services for the issuance of duplicate documents on higher, secondary specialized and vocational education.

In accordance with the Regulations, individuals who have graduated from an educational organization, in case of loss or damage to a document confirming education (diploma, certificate), as well as changing their last name, first name, patronymic, apply to the Public Service Centers or my.gov.uz to issue a duplicate of the document.

The duplicate has the same legal effect as the original. 

When the applicant applies to the Public Service Centers, the employee fills out the questionnaire electronically on behalf of the applicant.

When the applicant fills out the questionnaire through my.gov.uz, his electronic signature is not required.

For a public service, a fee is charged in the amount of 1 size of the basic estimated value (300 thousand soums).

Failure to pay the fee is grounds for refusal to provide the service.

If false data is indicated in the questionnaire, the applicant is given 5 working days to eliminate them.

Within 10 working days from the date of receipt of the request, a duplicate of the document is issued, of which the applicant is notified.

The applicant receives a duplicate document of education from the authorized body. 

At the request of the applicant, a duplicate of the document on education can be sent by the authorized body through the postal service. Postage fees are paid by the applicant.
