Bakyt Darmankul uulu, Deputy Minister of Labor, shared current data on Kyrgyz citizens living abroad.
At a meeting of the parliamentary groups "Eldik" and "Ala-Too," Bakyt Darmankul uulu reported that currently about 798 thousand citizens of Kyrgyzstan are abroad. Of this number, 532 thousand reside in Russia. 341 thousand Kyrgyz citizens are registered with the migration authorities.
According to Darmankul uulu, in 2020-2021, the number of Kyrgyz citizens in Russia reached 708 thousand, but this number has decreased due to changes in the migration routes of Kyrgyz citizens.
The Deputy Minister of Labor also noted that by 2025, 124 thousand Kyrgyz citizens were unable to register with the migration authorities for various reasons. Russia provided foreigners with more than nine months for legalization. As a result, of the 124 thousand unregistered, 34 thousand Kyrgyz citizens remain.
