What to Check Before Signing a Lease
1. Property Status
Make sure the premises are converted to non-residential use. Renting a residential apartment "as an office" is illegal and creates risks.
2. Who Is the Owner?
Request title documents. Fraud cases — where the "landlord" turns out not to be the owner — are not uncommon in Bishkek.
3. Utility Payments
Clarify: are electricity, water, internet included in the rent or paid separately? In Bishkek, internet is usually at the tenant's expense.
4. Early Termination Conditions
State in the agreement: notice period (usually 1–2 months), deposit refund conditions.
5. Rent Indexation
Agree on whether the landlord can raise the price unilaterally and under what conditions.
6. Parking
For a central office, clarify: are parking spaces available, are they included in the price?
Coworking or Dedicated Office?
For startups and small teams (up to 5 people), coworking spaces in Bishkek are becoming an alternative:
- Price: 5,000–15,000 som/month per workstation
- No deposit or long-term contract required
- Infrastructure ready (internet, meeting rooms, kitchen)
Choose coworking if: income is unstable, team is remote, you don't want to deal with renovation.
Choose a dedicated office if: you need to receive clients, you have more than 5 employees, you need a sign and address.
