00:30currently has 31 special economic zones, along with 423 small industrial zones, 32 technoparks
00:38and 381 industrial clusters. Together, they host more than 8000 enterprises.
00:45From January to September 2025, industrial output in these zones reached 3.12 billion euros.
00:53Investors are offered a range of incentives, including exemptions from corporate income tax.
01:00Land and property taxes, as well as customs due to exemptions on imported equipment and raw materials
01:06for up to two years. Let's take a closer look at how the system works in practice.
01:12In Surkhandarya, near the border with Afghanistan, the Aerotone trade zone becomes active early in the
01:19morning. Traders arrive with goods, buyers move between stalls and business is conducted across
01:25several languages in a single marketplace.
01:39Afghan citizens can enter the zone with a free for up to 15 days. The trade area also operates without
01:46VAT, helping reduce costs for businesses and traders.
02:03In Navai, projects worth around 2.2 billion euros are operating under a simplified customs regime.
02:23Navai is integrated into national transport corridors, linking road, rail and air routes.
02:29We propose a connection between auto, aviation and electric roads, including the corridor through
02:38Termez. Today we have an integration with the free economic zone of Navai and the commercial
02:43zones of Navai.
02:45From Navai to the Tashkent region, special economic zones are expanding to attract investment and develop
02:52industry. The Tashkent region's special economic zone hosts dozens of foreign enterprises, with new
02:59investment continuing to grow.
03:18For investors already operating in the country, the focus is often on expansion and long-term growth.
03:25We have started our job over here in 2024. The current investment is around 130 million dollars.
03:32We have a big plan to work over here producing non-alcoholic drinks, which uses Uzbekistan for the
03:37sake of more ways, especially for export from over here to other countries.
03:42Uzbekistan continues to expand its network of special economic zones across industry, manufacturing and
03:48cross-border trade.
03:50Joining us now is Mr. Sokhob Saith Nazarov, head of the department at the Ministry of Investment,
03:56Industry and Trade. Mr. Saith Nazarov, how is the government responding to growing demand for
04:02industrial sites and special economic zones?
04:04In the first place, obviously, we need to note that every year, the private and foreign
04:10investment in the Republic, that is large enough, this is 20-25% every year. And, of course, this requires
04:18площадей and infrastructure for the development of the state and the
04:21property of the public.
04:45Dzięki za oglądanie.
04:48To wszystko.
04:49Do zobaczenia w kolejnym odcinku.
