According to a release from Turkey's Revenue Administration, officials from Turkey and Uzbekistan signed an amending protocol to the 1996 income tax treaty between the two countries on 25 October 2017. The protocol is the first to amend the treaty and includes provisions to more effectively address tax evasion issues. It will enter into force after the ratification instruments are exchanged. Details of the protocol will be published once available.

Note - A previous report that the protocol has been signed on 25 May 2017 has been updated to reflect that the protocol had been initialed (negotiations concluded) at that time.
