The State Tax Service under the Ministry of Economy has stated that the Tax Code provides for certain benefits for persons with disabilities.
According to Article 102.3 of the Tax Code, individuals with a disability due to a 61-100% impairment of body functions (excluding those with disability related to war), individuals with disabilities under 18 years of age, those requiring permanent care who are under 18 years old, or those with a disability due to 81-100% impairment of body functions, as well as parents (including adoptive parents) who take care of them and live with them, will have their taxable monthly income reduced by 200 manats if one of the parents (at their discretion), spouse, guardian, or custodian is engaged in paid work.
According to Article 102.2.4 of the Tax Code, individuals with disabilities related to war will have their taxable monthly income reduced by 400 manats if they are engaged in paid work.
Tax benefits are applied to the income from paid work of a person from the moment the documents established by the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Azerbaijan are presented to the primary workplace (where the employment record book is kept).
It is noted that according to Article 102.8 of the Tax Code, the right to tax benefits listed in this article is applied from the moment the relevant documents, determined by the competent authority, are presented, and is implemented only at the primary workplace of the individual (where the employment record book is kept). If an individual has the status that entitles them to these tax benefits but provides the relevant documents confirming the right to benefits only after the employment contract (agreement) comes into force, the tax benefit will be calculated from the date the employment contract (agreement) comes into force.
Additionally, it is noted that, except for cases where buildings are rented out, leased, or used for entrepreneurial or commercial activities, the amount of property tax payable for buildings by individuals specified in Article 102.2 of the Tax Code, as well as retirees and military personnel on active duty and their family members, is reduced by 30 manats during the period of active military service.
Furthermore, according to Article 207.2 of the Tax Code, the reduction of land tax by 10 manats also applies to individuals with disabilities related to war.
