  "bluf": "The Republic of Tajikistan Law on Public Procurement of Goods, Works and Services No. 168 of 3 March 2006 (Qonuni Jumhurii Tojikiston dar borai kharidi davlatii mol, kor va khizmatraso) effective 3 March 2006, amended by Law No. 815 of 16 April 2012, ceased to be valid (was repealed) by Article 75 of the Law of the Republic of Tajikistan No. 1955 of 15 March 2023, which is now the operative procurement instrument. While in force, Law 168/2006 was the principal Tajik statute governing procurement of goods, works, and services by procuring entities (organizatori-on-i kharid) including the Republican Budget bodies (Majlisi Oli, executive bodies including ministries and agencies, the President's Executive Office, the Constitutional Court, the Supreme Court, the General Prosecutor's Office), regional government bodies (hukumat-i viloyat) and local government bodies (hukumat-i shahr va nohiya), state and municipal enterprises, public-sector universities, and other procuring entities financed by the Republican Budget. Law 168/2006 established the modern Tajik procurement framework. The Agency for Public Procurement of Goods, Works and Services under the Government of the Republic of Tajikistan (zakupki.tj) is the central regulatory authority responsible for procurement regulation, oversight, complaint resolution, supplier debarment, and procurement guidance. The Tajik Government Procurement Information System (zakupki.tj) is the federal e-procurement platform. Procurement methods established by Law 168/2006 art. 11 to 26 comprise (a) Konkurs Otkrytyy (Open Tender, the default open public procedure for high-value acquisitions above prescribed thresholds), (b) Konkurs Zakrytyy (Closed Tender, with prequalification or restricted to invited suppliers), (c) Konkurs Dvuhetapnyy (Two-Stage Tender, for complex acquisitions), (d) Zaprashivanie Tsenovykh Predlozheniy (Request for Quotations, for medium-value), (e) Pryamoy Sposob Zakupki (Direct Procurement, sole-source under prescribed exceptions in art. 22 including emergency, sole supplier for technical reasons, prior failed procurement, and prescribed-class exemptions), (f) Iz Edinogo Istochnika (From One Source / Single Source Procurement), and (g) Electronic Reverse Auction. The Chamber of Accounts of the Republic of Tajikistan conducts ex-post procurement audit. The Anti-Corruption Agency has investigative jurisdiction over procurement-related corruption. Tajikistan is in the EAEU accession process and observes EAEU procurement provisions. Tajikistan is NOT a party to the WTO Government Procurement Agreement (GPA).",
