Key Takeaways
Tajikistan's standard VAT rate is 14% for all transactions, whether paid in cash or non-cash (in force 2024 through 2026, dropping to 13% on January 1, 2027). As a non-EU country, the EU's EUR 10,000 threshold does not apply — a business becomes a VAT payer once income exceeds 1,000,000 somoni over the previous 12 months. SaaS and digital services to Tajik consumers are taxable at the 14% standard rate; financial services and certain medical, educational, and social supplies are exempt.

Registration & nexus threshold
Tajikistan is outside the EU, so the EU One Stop Shop and the EUR 10,000 threshold do not apply. A business becomes a VAT payer once income exceeds 1,000,000 somoni over the previous 12 consecutive months [1]. Registration steps are in the How to Register section.
Filing frequency & deadlines
Domestic VAT payers file monthly, by the 15th of the following month. Non-resident digital providers report on a calendar-quarter basis, with the return and payment due by the 20th of the month after each quarter, filed electronically through the personal account [1][3].
Exemptions
Exports are zero-rated, and statutory exemptions cover financial services and certain medical, educational, and social supplies [1]. SaaS and digital services supplied to Tajik consumers are taxable at the 14% standard rate [1].
Penalties
Late payment accrues interest of 0.04% of the tax due for each calendar day of delay, and non-payment or failure to file additionally triggers administrative fines under Tajikistan's tax and administrative-offences legislation [1].
