Outstanding payments from the privatization of state property in Azerbaijan totaled 79.6 million manats at the end of the first half of 2026.
The figure appears in the Chamber of Accounts’ opinion on the draft 2027 state budget, according to Vesti Baku. The chamber said stronger administration could generate additional budget revenue.
The balance of assessed privatization payments that had not been transferred to the budget fell by 7 million manats during the first six months of the year. The remaining amount is still significant relative to expected privatization revenue.
2027 Target Raised to 140 Million Manats
The draft budget projects 140 million manats in privatization revenue next year. That is 15 million manats, or 12%, above the 2026 forecast.
Privatization brought 122.1 million manats into the budget from January through September 2026, meaning the annual target of 125 million manats was already 97.7% fulfilled after nine months.
Revenue increased by 12.2 million manats, or 11.1%, from the same period in 2025. The Chamber of Accounts said collecting the accumulated debt remains a separate potential source of budget financing.
