GRS Extract in Kyrgyzstan: How to Get It Online via egov.kg and Why You Need It

Before purchasing any real estate in Kyrgyzstan, the first step is to order a GRS extract. It takes just a few minutes online and costs next to nothing — but it can save you from catastrophic mistakes.

What Is a GRS Extract?

A State Registration Service (GRS KR) extract is an official document that contains:

  • Who the owner is (full name, share)
  • Basis of ownership — how it was acquired (purchased, gifted, inherited)
  • Encumbrances — whether there is a mortgage, pledge, arrest, or prohibition on alienation
  • Restrictions — court prohibitions, easements
  • History of ownership transfers

Why You Need an Extract When Buying an Apartment

Without an extract, you don't know:

  • Whether the seller is the actual legal owner
  • Whether the apartment is pledged to a bank
  • Whether there is an arrest from bailiffs or a court
  • Whether the apartment is the subject of a legal dispute

The seller shows you "title documents" — they may be outdated. Only a fresh GRS extract reflects the current status of rights to the property.


Method 1: Online via egov.kg (Fastest)

  1. Go to the egov.kg portal
  2. Log in via EDS (electronic digital signature) or Tunduk
  3. Find the section «GRS» → «Reference Information on Real Estate»
  4. Enter the cadastral number or address of the property
  5. Pay the state fee (approximately 100–200 som)
  6. Receive the extract in electronic format

Time: 15–30 minutes Cost: 100–300 som

To log in via egov.kg you need an EDS on a special token. If you don't have one — use another method.


Method 2: Through a Service Center (MFC)

  1. Visit any service center (MFC) in Bishkek in person
  2. Present your passport and provide the property address
  3. Fill out an application
  4. Pay the state fee on the spot
  5. Receive the extract

Time: 1–3 business days Cost: 200–500 som


Method 3: Directly at a GRS Territorial Office

Visit the district GRS office at the property's location.

Time: 1–5 business days (or same day for an urgent order) Cost: 200–800 som


What to Look for in the Extract: Buyer's Checklist

Once you receive the extract, verify:

  • Owner — does it match the person selling?
  • Encumbrances — the field should be empty or contain only entries you're aware of
  • Arrest — there should be no entries about an arrest or prohibition on alienation
  • Mortgage — if present, the apartment is pledged to a bank (sale requires the bank's consent)
  • Area — does it match the technical passport?
  • Date of issue — the extract should be fresh (no older than 1–2 weeks before the transaction)

Who Else Can Order an Extract?

Any person — the extract is public information. You don't need to be the owner or buyer to order it. This is important: you can check any property even before negotiations with the seller.


Extract for a Notary and Bank

  • The notary orders an extract independently when formalizing a transaction (included in the cost of notarial services)
  • The bank also orders an extract for a mortgage — but it is recommended to get your own before negotiations, so you don't waste time on a problematic property
