“At a regular meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Kyrgyz Republic, a decision was approved that simplifies the system for issuing a residence permit to foreign citizens who have invested in the economy of the Kyrgyz Republic. The decision was developed in order to increase the inflow of foreign direct investment and improve the investment attractiveness of the Kyrgyz Republic,” the spokesman said.
