Uzbekistan’s gold exports rose by 54.8 percent in the first five months of 2025, reaching 6.49 billion U.S. dollars, official data shows.
Uzbekistan has recorded a sharp increase in its gold exports this year, with volumes rising to 6.49 billion U.S. dollars in the January-May period, according to data from the National Statistics Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan.
The data shows that gold exports grew by 54.8 percent compared to the same period in 2024.
The share of gold in Uzbekistan’s total export structure also saw a notable increase. Last year, gold accounted for 37.1 percent of total exports in the first five months, whereas this year its share has reached 43.8 percent.
Uzbekistan is among the world’s leading gold producers, with the metal playing a key role in the country’s export earnings and foreign exchange reserves.
The growth comes amid favourable international gold prices and strong demand. The country has been focusing on diversifying its exports, but gold continues to remain the dominant commodity in its trade portfolio.
The National Statistics Committee did not provide further details on export destinations for the gold shipments during this period.
