Security passports for settlements will be established. In this regard, the Minister of Emergencies' order titled "On the Approval of the Regulation for the Procedure of Drawing Up and Approving Model Security Passports for Settlements and Objects of the Republic of Uzbekistan" has been issued.

• Number of high-risk objects
• Number of social and economic objects

The following densely populated objects are also specified:

• Healthcare facilities
• Preschool educational institutions, schools, vocational education institutions, and higher education institutions
• Shopping complexes
• Cultural and sports institutions
• Mosques

The document includes data on the number of emergency situations that occurred in the past year and the estimated potential damage resulting from such situations.

It is reported that this document has been published in the national database of legal documents and will come into effect on October 11, 2024.
