- Azerbaijan’s State Tax Service will count only 50% of cashless POS sales toward the VAT registration threshold starting in 2026.
- This effectively doubles the VAT registration threshold to AZN 400,000 for businesses using only electronic payments, while the threshold for cash transactions remains at AZN 200,000.
- The change aims to encourage cashless payments and increase transparency in business transactions.
- The amendments are part of broader efforts to combat the shadow economy and were approved by Azerbaijan’s parliament as changes to the Tax Code.
