According to the Credit Information Analytical Center, as of April 1, 2026, the number of individuals connected to the 'Credit Ban' service has reached 2,207,753. This service allows citizens to prohibit the issuance of loans using their personal data, with 1,283,506 men (58%) and 924,247 women (42%) among the users.

Infographics indicate that the number of service users has sharply increased in recent months. As of July 1, 2025, this figure was only 33,000, but by October 1, it rose to 149,000, and by January 1, 2026, it reached 438,000. By April 1, the number exceeded 2.2 million, reflecting growing public interest in financial security and concerns over credit-related issues.

In terms of age categories, the largest share belongs to individuals aged 26–35 — 674,617 people (31%). Additionally, those under 26 account for 536,860 people (24%), ages 36–45 for 528,866 people (24%), ages 46–55 for 275,201 people (12%), and citizens over 56 for 192,209 people (9%). These statistics highlight the spread of attention to credit safety across different age groups.

The service for including individuals in the register of persons prohibited from concluding credit agreements was launched on June 6, 2025. Through it, a person can be added to or removed from the register. This measure was implemented under a law signed by the president on March 4, 2025, aimed at preventing cases of loans being issued without people's knowledge.

This service is free and can be accessed via the official website of the Credit Bureau or the Unified Interactive State Services Portal (my.gov.uz). Previously, the Credit Information Analytical Center launched a new 'Credit Notification' service, through which citizens receive immediate information about loans issued in their name via SMS and push notifications, helping to timely identify illegal loans.
