Now the training for category B driving license will last 10 months, and for category C - 12 months.
Salimzhanov clarified that the focus will be on training drivers for categories B and C, and warned driving schools against charging fees for training outside the established procedure.
Tumanbaev added that in the first nine months of 2025, there has been an increase in the number of road incidents in Kyrgyzstan, which served as the basis for introducing new measures to reduce accident rates.
In addition, he refuted rumors about the cost of training, which allegedly amounted to 100-130 thousand soms, stating: "There is no such price category; I ask you not to spread false information."
As for submitting applications for training, as Salimzhanov noted, Kyrgyz citizens will be able to submit them starting January 19 through the "Tunduk" application, indicating their region and their last name, first name, and patronymic.
“We will form groups based on the submitted applications and will inform where the training will take place,” he added.
According to the new standards, the training program for category B now includes 480 hours and covers theory, traffic rules, vehicle structure and maintenance, basics of safe driving, first aid, psychophysiological aspects, legal norms, and driver ethics. Training for category C will last 12 months.
Salimzhanov also reported that previously the cost of training was 25-35 thousand soms with a training period of 3.5 months, but with the increase in duration and volume of the program, the price will change; however, specific figures will be announced next week.
