FEATURING
front: National Coat of Arms, and 12 Stars representing the twelve provinces of Uzbekistan

In the center, a right-facing khumo, a bird symbolizing happiness and love of freedom, is displayed with wings outstretched. Enclosed by the khumo's wings is a depiction of the rising sun over mountains. In Uzbek mythology, the symbol of happiness and freedom. Uzbek poet Alisher Navoi characterized the bird Humo as the kindest of all living beings.

Two rivers, the Amu Darya and Syr Darya, flow from the mountains and crepuscular rays emanate from the sun. The image of the sun symbolizes the light that illuminates the path of the Uzbek state, as well as emphasizes the unique natural and climatic conditions of the Republic.

The emblem is in the form of a circle and mainly bears the national colors blue, white, and green, replacing the Soviet motto "Workers of the world, unite!" where the red ribbon previously stood. On the left there is a cotton plant and to the right wheat borders the coat of arms, cotton and wheat are the two major agricultural products of the country.

It is surmounted by the star of Rub El Hizb (۞), a symbol of Islam, which a majority of Uzbeks profess.
