On 15 September 2016, the President of Azerbaijan signed a new
Decree "On Additional Measures on Increasing the
Efficiency of Executive Authorities and Organizations Funded from
the State Budget" (the "New Decree"), which set
forth new regulations for public procurement.
In particular, executive authorities of the Republic of
Azerbaijan and organizations funded from the State Budget shall
phase out the procurement of imported goods (works and services) by
1 January 2018.
There are, however, certain exceptions to this requirement, as
set out below:
The restrictions set forth above do
not apply to the procurement of imported goods (works and services)
using funds borrowed from foreign lenders and guaranteed by the
State, foreign grants and procurement for the defense and national
security purposes, as well as to the procurement of drugs and
medical supplies;
Where it becomes necessary to procure
imported goods (works and services) under contacts concluded before
the date of the New Decree (15 September 2016), executive
authorities and organizations funded from the State Budget will be
required to obtain the consent of the Ministry of Economy of the
Republic of Azerbaijan, which is to be granted in consultation with
the President of the country;
Where it otherwise becomes necessary
for executive authorities and organizations funded from the State
Budget to procure imported goods (works and services), they will be
required to obtain the consent of the Ministry of Economy the
Republic of Azerbaijan, which is to be granted in consultation with
the President of the country.
The Ministry of Economy the Republic of Azerbaijan will be
reporting to the President on the amount of funds spent by
executive authorities and organizations funded from the State
Budget to procure imported goods (works and services) once every
three months.
