- Uzbekistan will extend its nonresident VAT regime to foreign legal entities selling goods through electronic trading platforms, effective December 12, 2026.
- The new rules cover B2C sales of goods to individuals in Uzbekistan; a sale is treated as sourced to Uzbekistan only if both the customer’s residence and the delivery location are in Uzbekistan.
- Nonresident goods sellers and their intermediaries must follow the existing 30-day VAT registration/deregistration and electronic filing rules that already applied to nonresident digital service providers.
- Platform operators or other intermediaries involved in payment settlement can be treated as VAT tax agents, with cascading liability applying where multiple intermediaries are involved.
- For B2B goods transactions, the buyer is subject to self-assessment; no new invoicing rules were introduced for goods sellers.
