The Russian e-commerce giant Wildberries has paid 50 billion soums in taxes in Uzbekistan after a comprehensive audit by the State Tax Committee. The audit revealed that the company’s operations, conducted through its local entity “WB Int Export” LLC, did not fully comply with Uzbekistan’s tax legislation.
The audit covered the period from 2022 to 2024, resulting in an additional tax payment of 51.2 billion soums, including 42.8 billion soums in value-added tax (VAT). The State Tax Committee emphasized its commitment to ensuring compliance with tax laws for all entities operating in the country.
This development follows recent news about restrictions on another marketplace, China’s Temu, which will face limitations in Uzbekistan starting March 20.
