According to the deputy, he does not possess such funds, and the mentioned amount reflects assets in his reporting.
“The declaration states 12 billion, but in reality, I do not have that kind of money. These are just assets. People started saying that this money could be used to pay off the debt to China. I did not want to comment on this, but since the discussions do not subside, I am forced to speak. The law on asset legalization implies a payment of 1 million soms if the amount exceeds 100 million soms. For some reason, I was told that I have 12 billion. Apparently, they added extra zeros. Because of this, I had to pay 1 million soms. Of course, we have a little money. Before my deputyship, I was engaged in business, and now my close ones and children manage the business. But I do not have such amounts,” he noted.
Tashiev also added that thousands of citizens have legalized their assets, and information about declarations should not be published without the declarant's consent.
“The president legalized, it seems, 20 million dollars, and he announced it himself. I did not give such permission, so the state bodies should not have done this. For some reason, information about me appeared, while those who legalized huge businesses, shopping centers, billions of dollars – did not. I have two or three houses and one or two cars, and this was immediately put on display. According to the law, law enforcement agencies cannot check these assets without permission. If they ask me to indicate the sources, I will show what I have, and what I do not have, let them search. If they do not find it, how can I show them?” he expressed his opinion in the interview.

Opinion of the State Tax Service
The State Tax Service informed Kaktus.media that tax reporting, including the declaration, is prepared by the taxpayer or their representative independently.The unified tax declaration is submitted in electronic format through the taxpayer's cabinet. To access this cabinet, it is necessary to fill out an electronic registration form with the required data, including a password known only to the applicant. After that, the tax inspector confirms the registration upon presentation of the applicant's passport.
According to the above, access to the taxpayer's cabinet is only available to the declarant themselves or their representative, and no one else can submit a declaration on their behalf.
The information indicated in the declaration is subject to verification:
- for public officials from July 1 of the current year;
- for individuals during field, desk, and liquidation audits;
- for legal entities during field, desk, and liquidation audits.
Individuals and legal entities can clarify the declaration within the statute of limitations for tax obligations, except for:
- during a field tax audit, including cases of suspension of such an audit;
- for the tax period for which there is a decision from the tax authority based on the results of a tax audit that has not been canceled;
- in the presence of a court decision on debt collection or within the framework of enforcement proceedings based on tax authority documents.
The responsibility for the accuracy of the information presented in the tax reporting, including the declaration, lies with the declarant (taxpayer).
