Uzbekistan is actively developing its IT sector by providing significant tax benefits to companies registered in IT Park. IT Park residents are exempt from profit tax, VAT, property tax and unified social payment until 2028. This makes Uzbekistan one of the most attractive jurisdictions for IT business in Central Asia.
To obtain IT Park resident status, a company must meet certain criteria: its core activity must be related to software development, IT services or digital technologies. Applications are submitted through the IT Park portal, and decisions are usually made within 15 business days.
Beyond IT Park, IT companies can take advantage of free economic zone (FEZ) benefits, which provide additional customs and tax preferences. Special tax regimes for startups and IT service exporters are also worth considering.
