From Tax Incentives to Full Hiring Power: What Changed in Just One Year
Last year, we opened a company in Uzbekistan to offer our clients access to IT Park tax benefits. We saw the potential early and built the legal foundation so our partners could benefit from one of Central Asia's most business-friendly tech ecosystems.
Now we’re going further.
We’re no longer just offering access to incentives. We’re officially operating as an Employer of Record (EOR) in Uzbekistan.
That means you can hire local talent through Gegidze, without opening a local entity or worrying about compliance. From developers and designers to support teams and finance roles, your company can hire fast, pay less, and stay fully compliant with local law.
And this isn’t happening in isolation.
Gegidze is already active in Georgia, Armenia, Turkey, Germany, and now Uzbekistan. We’ve built regional infrastructure, legal capacity, and hiring systems that make cross-border operations feel local.
Let’s walk through what this move means for you, your team, and your bottom line.
What is Uzbekistan’s IT Park?
Uzbekistan’s IT Park is a government-backed program designed to support tech companies, outsourcing firms, and digital service providers. It offers full tax exemptions and legal advantages to registered residents working in the digital economy.
Here’s what’s available when you hire through Gegidze in Uzbekistan:
0% corporate income tax
0% VAT
0% property and land tax
0% social tax
Just 7.5% personal income tax for employees
You can access all of this without creating a legal entity in Uzbekistan. That’s where Gegidze steps in.
From Legal Setup to Full Hiring Delivery
When we opened our entity in Uzbekistan last year, the goal was simple: help clients unlock IT Park benefits quickly and safely. It worked. Our partners started saving money on taxes, and interest grew fast.
However, many clients wanted more than tax optimization. They wanted to hire, without the cost and delay of building a presence from scratch.
So we built the infrastructure to make it happen.
In September 2024, Gegidze acquired Team Up to meet growing demand for global hiring done right. Since then, Team Up has become the face of our EOR services: helping companies hire talent across borders without opening local entities.
Whether you’re scaling in Georgia, Armenia, Turkey, or Uzbekistan, it’s Team Up that handles your contracts, payroll, and compliance. Gegidze builds the legal and operational infrastructure. Team Up delivers the hiring experience.
Today, Team Up with Gegidze offers full EOR services in Uzbekistan. You choose who to hire, and we handle the contracts, payroll, compliance, and reporting.
You stay focused on your team. We take care of the local complexity.
What You Get with Team Up as Your EOR in Uzbekistan
Hiring through Team Up means you don’t need to open a company. You don’t need to understand Uzbek labor law. You don’t need to manage local payroll.
We handle:
Employment contracts, fully compliant with the labor code and IT Park rules
Monthly payroll processing and reporting
Tax and pension calculations
Time-off tracking, benefits, and employee support
Onboarding, offboarding, and HR management
You maintain full control over your team’s work. We manage the legal and administrative side.
Why This Saves You Money
Let’s get practical. Here’s how hiring under IT Park residency compares to a traditional setup:
Category | Traditional Company Setup | Gegidze/Team Up as EOR |
Corporate Tax | 15–25% | 0% |
VAT | 12–20% | 0% |
Property & Land Tax | 2–5% | 0% |
Social Tax | ~12% | 0% |
Personal Income Tax | 10–15% | 7.5% |
Entity Setup Time | 2–3 months | Not needed |
Time to Hire | 8–12 weeks | 1–2 weeks |
These aren’t minor savings. They can reduce your cost-per-hire by thousands per year.
Who This Is For
We work with:
Startups building engineering teams
Agencies that are hiring delivery specialists and back-office staff
Tech companies scaling support functions
Remote-first companies expanding into new time zones
If you’re hiring international talent and looking for a smarter way to do it, this model is for you.
Uzbekistan offers a strong tech workforce, high English fluency, and a growing digital economy. It’s no longer an emerging market: it’s a ready one.
Why Uzbekistan, and Why Now
Central Asia is entering its moment. Governments are investing heavily in digital infrastructure. The workforce is young, skilled, and motivated. Salaries remain competitive. And now, with IT Park legislation in place, the tax benefits are among the best in the world.
The opportunity isn’t in the future. It’s right now.
Many companies are just starting to explore the region. You can be ahead by hiring smart, saving on tax, and operating with confidence.
