In which cases are residents who earn income from abroad required to pay tax?

In which cases are residents who earn income from abroad required to pay tax?


According to Article 96.1 of the Tax Code, the object of taxation on the income of residents is the taxable income, which is defined as the difference between the resident’s total income for the tax year and the deductible amount determined by this Code for the relevant period.

The total income of a taxpayer includes income earned both within the Republic of Azerbaijan and outside its borders.

Please note that, in accordance with Article 127.1 of the Tax Code, amounts of income tax or profit tax paid on income not derived from Azerbaijani sources but earned by a resident outside the territory of the Republic of Azerbaijan are taken into account when calculating taxes payable in Azerbaijan.

We inform you that prior to commencing entrepreneurial activity, you must register with the tax authority by submitting an application (and obtain a Taxpayer Identification Number – TIN), and you must pay taxes on the income you earn to the state budget.

Please also be informed that under Article 58.2 of the Tax Code, failure to submit the application for tax registration within the time frame specified in Article 33.4 of this Code results in a financial sanction of 40 manats.
