Ulaanbaatar,
April 8, 2026 /MONTSAME/. The
Government of Mongolia has cancelled a plan to conduct inspections at 9,376
sites belonging to citizens, businesses, and organizations under its unified
2026 plan, a decision made at today’s cabinet session.
Prime
Minister Uchral Nyam-Osor emphasized that the government’s “Liberate”
initiative is aimed at stimulating the economy during a challenging period,
rather than increasing inspections. He noted that some businesses had been
inspected up to 16 times in a single month, with around 50 percent of
inspections resulting in fines. Criticizing this approach, he said the
government should reduce administrative burdens and support business
activities, while continuing to uphold its responsibility to protect public
health and safety.
A
total of 31 areas of sectoral inspections are currently overseen by 11
ministries, three agencies, and local administrative bodies, with 1,713 state
inspectors operating nationwide. Within this
framework, authorities monitor compliance with 112 laws, more than 3,600
regulations, and over 4,500 standards. Data from inspections conducted in
2024–2025 show that some organizations were inspected more than 30 times per
year.
