Company registration in Uzbekistan

Registration in the country and admission to a special regime are two separate decisions, and they are taken in that order. The company is created under national law first; only an existing legal person can then apply to the technology park.

What else we do in the country is listed on the Uzbekistan page. Registration in other jurisdictions lives under company registration.

What the file carries

• A charter naming the company, its activity, the postal address, the bodies and their powers.
• A founding agreement, or a charter alone where a single person sets the company up.
• The charter fund and each founder's share, written as a percentage or a fraction.
• Identity data for founders and for the person who will sign, submitted through the state services system.
• Proof of the state duty, because the registering body acts only after it sees the payment.

What the Act says about capital

The Limited Liability Companies Act of 21 April 2026 sets no general minimum. It says the charter fund is fixed by the charter and made up of the nominal value of the members' shares, and that a minimum may be set by licensing requirements for a regulated activity.

Two limits do bite. A contribution in kind worth more than ten thousand base calculation values has to be valued by a valuation organisation and cannot be entered above that valuation. And membership is capped at fifty: cross it, and the company has a year to become a joint-stock company.

What the state charges

The duty is set in base calculation values, and the value has stood at 440,000 soums since 1 September 2026.

Three places the same business can sit

An ordinary national company

Formed under the Act above, taxed under the Tax Code, free to do anything the law does not licence. This is the route that works today for trade, services and employment.

Inside the technology park

An existing Uzbek legal person applies through the web portal with a business plan. The expert council examines the plan within ten working days and the directorate decides within fifteen working days of receiving the documents.

The financial centre in Tashkent

Its constitutional law was signed on 13 July 2026, and the centre's bodies have twelve months from the law's entry into force to adopt the enactments it needs, extendable by up to six months. Until they exist there is nothing to file.

What the technology park gives, and to whom

To file, the company needs an activity from the park's list, a business plan the expert council can test, and bookkeeping software connected to the tax service.

• Exemption from all taxes and mandatory contributions to state funds, including the social tax, until 1 January 2028; interest, rent, dividends and similar income stay taxed under the general rules.
• Through 2028–2039, the resident stays exempt from all taxes except value-added tax where export income from permitted activities passes 50 percent of aggregate income over the calendar year, or, for IT training, where half of graduates over 18 joined resident exporters.
• Wages under employment contracts with a resident taxed at a fixed 7.5% until 2028 and left outside the employee's aggregate annual income.
• Foreign specialists engaged without a separate work permit confirmation, and a virtual office available where the head of the company is an Uzbek citizen.
• Relief starting from the first day of the month after the company is entered in the register of residents, and ending the same way if the status is lost.

The resident's duties and the grounds for losing the status are set out on the Uzbekistan page.

What the tax year will ask

Outside the technology park, the general rules apply.

• Turnover tax while aggregate income stays at or below one billion soums a year.
• Profit tax at 15% for taxpayers outside the listed categories, and 5% on dividend income.
• A move to profit tax and value-added tax from the day aggregate income passes that billion.
