Taxation on deposit dividends maybe aborted

The dividends on bank deposits are offered for exemption from taxation in Azerbaijan from February 1, 2016, Elman Rustamov, the head of the Central Bank of Azerbaijan (CBA), said.

Rustamov made the statement at a meeting of the economic committee of the Azerbaijani parliament on January 19.

“The total volume of deposits of the Azerbaijani population reaches 9.3 billion manat as of Jan. 19,” he said. “The dividends on deposits reach 93 million manat.”

The issue of paying off dollar loan debts at the exchange rate of 1.05 manat versus $1 should be discussed in Azerbaijan, Elman Rustamov told reporters.
