Dunyagozel Gulmanova, Speaker of the National Parliament, reported on efforts to strengthen the country's legal framework at a meeting of the Turkmen government on Friday. She announced preparations for the next session of the Mejlis, scheduled for November 22. A package of bills reflecting current realities and international legal norms is on the agenda.
A special place on the Mejlis agenda will be the discussion of the draft Law of Turkmenistan "On Virtual Assets." This bill signals the country's strategic intent to regulate and integrate digital and crypto assets into the national economic system, an important step in the context of digitalization and modernization.
In addition to regulating the digital space, the draft Law "On the State Budget of Turkmenistan for 2026"—a key economic document defining the country's financial strategy for the coming year—is also being submitted to parliament for consideration.
The third important element of the package is the revised draft Law "On Scientific Intellectual Property." This updated legislation is intended to stimulate scientific research and innovation and ensure reliable legal protection for the results of intellectual property, which is critical for the development of the country's scientific and technological potential.
Parliamentarians will also consider draft laws on the ratification of international treaties and amendments and additions to existing legislation.
