What needs to be done to make Apple Pay services available in Tajikistan?

Hi, Apple Community!

Last year, many banks in Tajikistan integrated Google Pay, and the service is now fully operational. However, as far as I know, Apple Pay is still unavailable for residents of Tajikistan.

I’d like to know: what needs to be done to make Apple Pay available in our country, just like Google Pay? And what steps should local banks take to integrate it?

I’m not sure who to reach out to regarding this issue, so I decided to write here. Thank you in advance for any information!
