Tajikistan, a mostly Muslim country of Central Asia and an OIC member since 1992, was one of the first former Soviet states to pass a dedicated law on Islamic banking. The law came into force on 5 August 2014 and gave the National Bank of Tajikistan the task of licensing and regulating Islamic credit institutions, with technical help from the Islamic Development Bank.
The country's first full-fledged Islamic bank, Tawhidbank, was licensed in 2019 after the conversion of a conventional bank, Sohibkorbank, and microfinance organisations have since opened Islamic windows. This guide lists the institutions behind each part, with their pages on Wasabih.
