Starting April 1, 2026, the conditions for residency in Uzbekistan's IT Park will change for its members. The Directorate has approved new regulations under which the amount of mandatory contributions will be directly dependent on a company's export activity. This means the uniform rate for all is a thing of the past — it is being replaced by a flexible system designed to incentivize IT companies to enter international markets.
The New Contribution System
The primary innovation is a differentiated contribution scale, with rates ranging from 1% to 3% of total annual revenue. The specific rate for your company will be determined by two key parameters: total annual revenue and the share of revenue from exports.
To maintain the minimum contribution rate of 1%, a resident must meet the export requirements:
If the export share falls below the established minimum, the company transitions to higher tariffs:
Thus, the key factor for cost-saving becomes precisely export revenue. A company not developing international sales risks facing a 2-3 times increase in its fiscal burden.
To maintain the minimum contribution rate of 1%, a resident must meet the export requirements:
- From April 1, 2026: At least 20% of total revenue must come from service exports.
- From January 1, 2027: This threshold will increase to 35%.
If the export share falls below the established minimum, the company transitions to higher tariffs:
- Rate of 2% — Applies to companies with annual revenue between 5 and 100 billion Uzbek soums that fail to meet the export quota.
- Rate of 3% — For the largest residents with revenue exceeding 100 billion Uzbek soums, whose activities are focused on the domestic market.
Thus, the key factor for cost-saving becomes precisely export revenue. A company not developing international sales risks facing a 2-3 times increase in its fiscal burden.
