Can tax debt block a change to my Uzbek company?

Short answer

Yes, and at two different thresholds — 50 BCV blocks the change, 300 BCV blocks the simple route to it.

50 BCVRefusal ground — tax debt above fifty times the base calculation value refuses a re-registration changing the address, or a merger, accession or spin-off (Registration Regulation, Para. 40 — lex.uz ↗)
AlsoReporting failures do the same — under-reported turnover or import volume, an ongoing tax-control measure, or returns not filed on time (Registration Regulation, Para. 40 — lex.uz ↗)
300 BCVThe notification threshold — an address change goes through as a notification rather than a re-registration where debt does not exceed three hundred BCV (Registration Regulation, Para. 21 — lex.uz ↗)
SoTwo different numbers, two different questions — one asks whether the change can happen, the other how much work it is (Registration Regulation, Paras. 21, 40 — lex.uz ↗)
What the law provides

Tax standing is checked at the registry, not only at the tax office. A legal entity with tax debt exceeding fifty times the base calculation value is refused re-registration where the filing changes its address, or merges it with, accedes it to, or spins it off from another company — and the same ground catches under-reporting of turnover or import volume, the currency of a tax-control measure, and returns not filed within their deadlines. (Registration Regulation, Para. 40 — lex.uz ↗)

A second and much higher figure governs the route rather than the outcome. Changes to a legal entity’s registration data on a change of location are entered by way of notification to the registering body — the light route — where there is no tax debt exceeding three hundred times the base calculation value. The two thresholds were introduced by the same 2022 amendment and are easy to conflate; they answer different questions, and copy that states one should not state it as the other.
