Irrigation equipment is planned to be exempt from taxes in Azerbaijan, Trend reports.

This issue has been recently discussed at the extraordinary plenary session of the Azerbaijani parliament.

The import and sale of irrigation equipment, machinery and agricultural equipment has been exempt from VAT.
