Reviewer's notes: what is still open on this profile
- Remove the unsupported universal 3% employee pension deduction; optional employee participation and employer obligations are separate. The virtual-assets law is effective 1 January 2026 with licensing, registration and payment restrictions. Personal allowance, exempt instrument/pension classification and article 208 local levy remain unmodelled.
Each figure is the tax on one more unit of a very large amount of that income, with every layer the engine models: surtaxes and uncapped social contributions included. It is the top marginal rate, not the average rate you pay on all your income.
How complete is the Turkmenistan tax profile?
Partly complete. The Turkmenistan profile is under review: the engine computes only some parts, and a figure marked provisional on this page comes from a published summary, not from the engine. It is not a verified full calculation; the reviewer's notes under the rates table say what is still open.
What is the top income tax rate in Turkmenistan?
Provisionally 10%: the top rate on a salary from a Deloitte summary read on 10 November 2026. The Sovereign engine has not yet computed this rate, so treat it as a pointer, not a verified figure. Flat employment-income rate; source is an older country summary.
How are capital gains taxed in Turkmenistan?
Provisionally 10%: the top rate on a long-term capital gain from a PwC summary read on 10 November 2026. The Sovereign engine has not yet computed this rate, so treat it as a pointer, not a verified figure. General 10% PIT rate covers capital gains; read via a search excerpt, the page returned 404 on fetch. The rate does not depend on how long you held the asset.
How are dividends and interest taxed in Turkmenistan?
The top rate is not computed on dividends and 0% (provisional) on interest. A provisional figure is from a PwC summary read on 10 November 2026, not computed by the engine. Rental income is taxed at up to 10% (provisional).
How is crypto taxed in Turkmenistan?
Turkmenistan taxes a gain on crypto assets as a capital gain. The Sovereign engine has not yet computed the top rate on a crypto gain for Turkmenistan: the profile needs more facts or an accepted source before it states one. That is not a 0% rate.
Does Turkmenistan tax foreign income?
Yes. Turkmenistan taxes its residents on their worldwide income. A tax treaty or a credit for foreign tax can reduce the tax on income from abroad.
Does Turkmenistan have a wealth tax?
This is not verified as a general wealth tax. Turkmenistan's tax-authority consolidation lists its article 138 property tax for legal entities and a separate vehicle-owner charge for individuals. A published 2024 amendment does not change article 138, but the posted consolidation is dated 2022. The complete 2025 personal-asset rules, other amendments, collection and valuation basis are not established from that document. An individual market portfolio cannot certify an amount or zero.
Does Turkmenistan have an exit tax for individuals?
This is not verified yet: we have not checked whether Turkmenistan taxes unrealised gains when a resident leaves, so this page does not say that it does not.
When do you become tax resident in Turkmenistan?
The Turkmenistan day test (183 days in the calendar tax year): 183 aggregate days in the calendar year; pure transit and foreign-official exceptions apply. Recorded pure-transit days cannot be subtracted without trip-purpose detail. Foreign-official status and treaty residence require separate review.
Residence decides whether Turkmenistan taxes you on these rates. See the Turkmenistan day-count test and count your own days.
