Changes in unemployment benefits and taxes from November 1
Starting from November 1, 2025, a number of important changes will be implemented in our country. This was reported by Zamin.uz.

These changes cover economic, social, and administrative sectors and are expected to bring state governance and entrepreneurship to a new level. **Updates in unemployment benefit payment procedures** According to the Presidential decree adopted in August, the rules for paying unemployment benefits will change from November 1.

From now on, enterprises are required to create a mandatory reserve of jobs for citizens such as persons with disabilities, victims of domestic violence, representatives of low-income families, and orphans. This reserve of workers should not exceed 3 percent of the total number of employees and applies to organizations employing more than 100 people.

Unemployment benefits will only be paid to citizens whose labor contracts have been terminated and who have worked for at least 18 months in the last 5 years. If a person applies within 6 months, they will receive benefits based on their last salary for 3 months.

In the first month, 75 percent is paid, and in the second and third months, 50 percent is paid, but this amount should not exceed three times the minimum wage. **Facilitations for entrepreneurs** From November 1, a special legal regime will be introduced for individual entrepreneurs and self-employed persons.

All processes, including registration and tax payment, will be carried out through digital platforms. An electronic wallet system will be introduced to simplify income receipt and payment for entrepreneurs.

Opening a bank account will not be mandatory. Convenience will be provided through QR codes and other modern technologies.

**Tax burden reduction** Entrepreneurs with a turnover of up to 1 billion soums will now pay only 1 percent tax on turnover. This reduces the tax burden by 3-4 times compared to the previous system.

Additionally, it was announced that no penalties will be applied for tax audits against 20,000 entrepreneurs. They will have the opportunity to voluntarily correct their mistakes by November 1.

**Optimization in state governance** According to the President’s decree dated October 4, from November 1, 2,141 staff positions in the state governance system will be reduced. These reforms aim to simplify state functions, develop the private sector, and widely implement digital technologies.

Also, the number of deputy heads in committees and agencies will be reduced by 16. These reforms serve to adapt the country to modern requirements, expand citizens' opportunities, and develop the economy.
