This article analyzes the policy of religious tolerance and interethnic relations in Uzbekistan (1991–2024) based on a chronological and systematic approach. It also covers the legal model formed on the basis of the Constitution and sectoral laws, as well as the main stages of the activities of state institutions. The scientific novelty of the article is that the religious-national policy during the period of independence is summarized on the basis of a three-stage development model, and the reforms after 2017 are justified as a separate historical stage. The dynamics of growth in the activities of religious organizations and national cultural centers are also analyzed based on historical and statistical data. The results of the study show that the policy of religious tolerance in Uzbekistan has developed consistently, based on the principles of legal equality, institutional governance, and social balance. This policy is considered an important factor in strengthening interfaith harmony and interethnic harmony.
