Uzbekistan is open to international election observation, with international organizations and foreign observers playing a crucial role in ensuring the transparency and fairness of the democratic process. International election observation helps to protect citizens' electoral rights, promote knowledge exchange, and build strong international relations. Uzbekistan has joined over 80 international human rights instruments, including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The country has a well-developed practice of inviting international observers, with the number of foreign observers increasing in recent years. The legal regulation of the status of international observers is governed by the Election Code and the Regulations of the Central Election Commission. The participation of international observers in events not related to elections requires prior approval from the CEC. Uzbekistan actively cooperates with international organizations such as the UN, OSCE/ODIHR, and the European Parliament on election issues. The country is working to improve its electoral legislation and practice based on the recommendations of international election observation missions.
