Tax evaders can now be imprisoned

According to the law, which will come into force on July 19, liability measures for hiding, understating or not paying taxes have been strengthened.

❗️Fines for hiding or understating taxes or income have been increased:

🔹 For citizens: approximately 6 million - 10 million soums
🔹 For officials: approximately 10 million - 20 million soums
🔹 In case of concealment of a large amount, the fines will be even higher (from 41 million soums to 247 million soums).

❗️In cases of intentional non-payment or concealment of taxes:

🔹 fine
🔹 correctional labor
🔹 restriction of liberty (up to 1–5 years)
🔹 deprivation of liberty (1–7 years)

❗️In the most serious case (very large amounts):

🔹 Imprisonment for up to 5–7 years may be imposed.

However, in some cases, a person may be exempted from criminal liability if they fully cover the taxes and damages.
