Uzbekistan's national fiscal transparency framework is established by the Constitution (2011, substantially amended 2023 at lex.uz) Arts. 78, 80, 93, and 122-123, and the Budget Code 2013. Post-2017 Mirziyoyev-era reforms have substantially changed fiscal governance: programme budgeting introduced, the Accounting Chamber strengthened, and e-procurement (xaridlar.uz) expanded. However, the Accounting Chamber head remains appointed via Presidential nomination with Oliy Majlis Senate approval — an executive-controlled model (auditor_selection='appointed_executive'). Uzbekistan has NO standalone independent fiscal institution (IFI) and no legislative budget office. No confirmed dedicated expenditure portal requirement. No budget submission deadline confirmed from primary sources. Annual expenditure reporting floor retained (expenditure_frequency='annual'). Citizens' budget, capital plan, and contingent liability disclosure fields remain NULL pending primary source confirmation.
