Notes
- Dual identifiers: Every Tajik legal entity has two distinct numbers — the EIN (РЯМ, registry identifier) and the INN (РМА, tax identifier). Collect both; they are not interchangeable and both appear on official documents.
- Apostille is party but with objections: Tajikistan acceded to the Hague Apostille Convention (20-II-2015, entry into force 31-X-2015), but Austria, Belgium, and Germany raised formal objections — full legalisation chain required for those three jurisdictions.
- Registry portal primarily in Tajik/Russian: The andoz.tj portal (Tax Committee, primary registrar) is primarily in Tajik and Russian; English-language verification requires secondary sources or certified translations.
