Azerbaijan state development and reconstruction

Overview

President Ilham Aliyev has implemented several initiatives aimed at economic and territorial development. In October 2026, the President signed amendments to various laws, including the Tax and Migration Codes, to provide tax exemptions for startups and technology park residents. These measures, set to begin in January 2027, include a 10 year exemption on income and profit tax for certain share transfers and extended tax relief for micro and small startups.

In November 2026, the President inaugurated new infrastructure and settlements within territories regained following the 2020 conflict. Developments include the opening of residential villages in the Zangilan and Jabrayil districts, which feature housing, schools, and medical facilities. Additionally, the state has expanded industrial and agricultural capacity through the opening of a stadium in Xankendi, new facilities in the Aghdam Industrial Park, and the expansion of olive and walnut production.

On November 6, 2026, Azerbaijan marked the sixth anniversary of Victory Day, commemorating the liberation of Shusha. President Aliyev participated in ceremonies at Victory Park in Baku and the Victory Monument in Khankendi. On November 8, 2026, President Aliyev delivered an address at the Victory Arch in Khankendi, stating that the nation's victory includes the restoration of sovereignty and the elimination of separatism. He announced that a building formerly occupied by separatist entities will be converted into a Victory Museum. Commemorations also took place in Sumqayit, where officials and veterans honored those who died for territorial integrity. To mark the occasion, landmarks in Turkey, including the July 15 Martyrs Bridge in Istanbul and the Twin Towers in Ankara, were illuminated with Azerbaijani flag colors. Reconstruction efforts continue under the “Great Return” program, including projects like the Smart Village in Aghali.
