Uzbekistan Drafts New Rules for Online Pharmacy Platforms

On 6 November, Uzbekistan reported draft amendments regulating online pharmacy sales and medicine delivery. The proposals would require licensed pharmacies to provide digital product information, retail prices, delivery terms and relevant licence details, while delivery vehicles would need to maintain suitable storage conditions. Public consultation is scheduled to continue until 19 November; no implementation budget has been disclosed. The proposals create opportunities for e-commerce developers, pharmacy software providers, digital compliance specialists and logistics technology companies. HPC can support platform partnerships, technology sourcing and digital transformation planning.
