With the aim of providing state support for entrepreneurial activities, strengthening the country’s industrial and export capacity, eliminating unjustified and repetitive inspections, and creating a favorable environment for entrepreneurship and investment, at the initiative and through the direct efforts of the President of the Republic of Tajikistan, Leader of the Nation, His Excellency Emomali Rahmon, moratoriums on inspections of business entities have been declared in the country five times during the period from 2008 to 2026 (in 2008, 2011, 2018, 2022, 2025 and 2026).
