I am trying to book a hunt in Kyrgyzstan for this fall and I have been told that due to a new regulatory scheme, and the hunting areas being reallocated through an auction system, license issuance has been teporarily suspended...

Can anybody share any light on what th real situation there is?

Thank you in advance,

Hello,
one of my friends who sets up hunts in Kyrgyzstan told me the same. They don't know the prices for licenses etc. and do not book hunts for next season until the issues are solved.

Cheers,

Dennis

Thank you, Dennis.
We will have to wait and see how it goes.

Does anyone know when this will be resolved? I have a hunt booked this November.I was thinking about booking my air tickets but maybe I should wait?

I am in the same situation and will not get my tickets before everything is confirmed.
I have been told we should know in early May but when it comes to Central Asia, everything needs to be taken with a ton of salt.

Do these new regulations apply to both Ibex and Marco Polo?

Yes, it seems to apply to all hunting.

Can anybody update us?

I have not heard anything on my side and it is now about the time to take a decision, whether to stay focussed in Kyrgyzstan for my October hunt or move to another destination...

Any help will be appreciated, thank you!
