Dushanbe Mayor Rustam Emomali has signed a decree on establishing the Tajik Capital City Development Fund.
“Payments for permits to construct residential buildings and shops in Dushanbe will be one of sources for replenishing the Tajik Capital City Development Fund,” an official source at the Dushanbe mayor’s office told Asia-Plus in an interview.
Recall, Tajik lawmakers in early February adopted provisions requiring construction companies to pay a one-off fee per square meter of accommodation built.
Tajikistan’s lower house (Majlisi Namoyandagon) of parliament (Majlisi Oli) on February 6 endorsed a bill requiring amendments to the country’s law on other mandatory payments to the budget.
The rate of payment set by the government for permit to construct residential buildings and shops in Dushanbe ranges from 165 to 220 somoni per square meter.
The received funds will be transferred to a special account that will be opened by the Ministry of Finance.
The federally funded organizations constructing industrial and social facilities as well as tourism infrastructure are exempted from paying this fee.
