How to get tax residency certificate in Azerbaijan?

 

Obtaining Tax Residency Certificate in Azerbaijan is provided for by the “REGULATIONS for administration of international agreements for the avoidance of double taxation between the Republic of Azerbaijan and other States”, approved by the Ministry of Taxes on 12 June 2017.

 

Tax residency certificates are vital for proving tax residency status in a given state and obtain benefits from the Double Tax Treaties, i.e. avoid paying double taxes. The Certificate of Residency is issued by the State Tax Service for one tax year. 

 

A DTA Form 1 shall be approved in a soft or hard copy and submitted to State Tax Services in order to obtain tax residency certificate in Azerbaijan.  In addition to the DTA-01 Form, the information on the foreign state, applicant taxpayer, as well as description of works (services) shall be attached thereto. If the certificate of residency of Azerbaijan is requested for the purpose of obtaining tax exemption or lower tax rates provided for double tax treaties with respect to any income in the other contracting state, DTA-01 Form shall contain the date and number of the agreement which constitutes the basis for the income, as well as the amount of earned income in a relevant currency (if available).
