The regimes worth knowing.

Incentives in Uzbekistan are granted by regime rather than negotiated case by case, which is good news for transparency and demanding in terms of paperwork. Eligibility usually turns on the activity code, the location, the volume of investment and the export share, and benefits are withdrawn if commitments are not met. Every regime below is documented in Uzbek and Russian legislation; the practical question is which one your structure genuinely qualifies for.

For technology and services, the IT Park regime is the flagship: corporate income tax and social contribution relief, simplified customs treatment for equipment, and a dedicated IT visa for foreign staff and their families. For investors and their executives, the “golden visa” and investor residence routes offer long-term residence tied to qualifying investment, and are increasingly used by regional groups establishing a presence in Tashkent.

For industry and export projects, the special economic and small industrial zones offer customs and tax regimes designed for manufacturing, with land allocation and utility connections handled through the zone administration. Textile projects layer on GSP+ duty-free access to the European Union, and data-centre projects benefit from a preferential power tariff.

The 2025-2027 privatisation programme sits alongside these regimes rather than inside them, and often carries its own commitments, capital expenditure, employment, or continuity of service. We read the underlying resolutions, verify what has been implemented, and tell you plainly which incentives are available to you and what they will require in return.
