Is Cocaine legal in Kyrgyzstan?

Also known as: coke, blow

Legal status

Controlled in Kyrgyzstan. Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 152 of 26 March 2025 names cocaine in its controlled list by the exact entry «Кокаин» (cocaine), as checked on 18 September 2026. The dossier records mixture, salt, isomer and preparation rules for that entry as fact dependent.

Consequences if caught

Capital exposure: none. The dossier records for this row that no death penalty applies to the drug offences in Criminal Code articles 282 to 284. Article 282 carries the upper drug offence band, recorded in the dossier as «лишением свободы на срок от десяти до пятнадцати лет» (deprivation of liberty for a term of ten to fifteen years), so the ceiling is fifteen years. The criteria and sizes annex of Resolution No. 152 prints three quantity bands for «Кокаин»: small «0,03 g», large «свыше 0,03 g до 0,9 g включительно» (over 0.03 g up to and including 0.9 g) and especially large «свыше 0,9 g» (over 0.9 g). The dossier gives that upper band only. It does not set out which conduct, from possession and sale to import, export, manufacture or cultivation, falls under which of articles 282, 283 and 284, or what each quantity band does to the penalty.

If prescribed or medical

The dossier this cell rests on does not state a prescription or medical route for cocaine; it records the controlled list entry «Кокаин», its quantity row and the Criminal Code band, and nothing on medical use.

Documentation

The dossier does not state a traveller import, export or permit rule for cocaine. Its record for this row: «Кокаин» was searched in the controlled list of Resolution No. 152 and found as an exact entry, the quantity row was taken from the criteria and sizes annex, and Criminal Code articles 282 to 284 were checked for the offence framework, all on 18 September 2026. The previous cell, sourced to the Criminal Code (No. 127 of 28 October 2021) on WIPO Lex, recorded Article 282 as illegal production of narcotics for the purpose of sale, possession above threshold quantities as carrying a fine or up to 5 years' imprisonment, and small quantity personal possession as an administrative matter under the Code of Offences with no criminal record. That cell did not name the article of the 2021 Code that carries the possession penalty and gave no current threshold quantities; the quantity bands in this cell come from the dossier, not from it. Carried forward from the previous cell, not re-read in this pass.

Drug laws and enforcement change and vary within a country. This is not legal advice. Always confirm with Kyrgyzstan’s embassy or official drug authority before traveling; penalties can be severe, including imprisonment.
