Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.uz) — Uzbekistan’s nominal GDP for 2025 was revised upwards to 2,126.8 trillion soums from the previously reported 1,849.7 trillion soums following a reassessment of annual and quarterly figures for 2017–2025.
The National Statistics Committee announced the revised figures at a press conference.
The difference between the updated and previous estimates amounted to 277.1 trillion soums, or 15%. The revision was based on population and agricultural census results, updated annual reports from enterprises and organisations, and improved statistical surveys.
The main objective was to account more fully for economic activity, incorporate new data into the national accounts system and ensure comparability between figures for different years.
Of the 277.1 trillion soums increase in the GDP estimate, 36.4 trillion soums, or 13.1%, resulted from the population census. A further 80.4 trillion soums, or 29%, was attributed to the agricultural census.
The largest share of the revision — 160.3 trillion soums, or 57.9% — came from updated statistical data on enterprises and organisations.
The committee stressed that the 15% increase in nominal GDP does not represent an equivalent additional increase in real economic growth.
According to the revised calculations, Uzbekistan’s real economic growth in 2025 stood at 7.8%, compared with the previous estimate of 7.7%.
The revision therefore reflects adjustments to earlier estimates based on more comprehensive and detailed data, rather than an additional volume of goods and services produced during the year.
The calculations were conducted in line with the United Nations System of National Accounts standards and recommendations from international experts.
