President Shavkat Mirziyoyev signed the document on December 30.
Under the decree, imports of EV charging stations, their components, and equipment for servicing charging infrastructure will be exempt from customs duties in 2026–2027. A detailed list of eligible components will be approved separately.
Customs duty exemptions will also apply for two years to spare parts for spinning and weaving machines used in silk production. In addition, mulberry seeds and saplings, as well as industrial, elite, and super-elite silkworm breeds, will be exempt from customs payments.
The decree further introduces tax incentives for enterprises operating in the waste management sector. Until January 1, 2031, the Directorate for the Management of Waste Landfills and companies engaged in sanitation, waste collection, and recycling will pay corporate income tax and social tax at a reduced rate of 1 percent.
To qualify for the tax benefits, at least 90 percent of a company’s total revenue for the reporting period must come from the collection, transportation, sorting, and/or processing of waste. In addition, all employees must receive a monthly salary of no less than twice the minimum wage, set at UZS 2.542 million.
