Azerbaijan’s Chamber of Accounts has approved its opinion on the draft 2027 state budget and decided to submit it to the Milli Majlis. The move was described in a November 2 statement from the chamber carried by the Report news agency.
At a board meeting chaired by Vugar Gulmammadov, the chamber reviewed whether the bill and accompanying documents comply with existing legislation. Its assessment also covered the accuracy and completeness of revenue, spending and budget-deficit forecasts.
The board separately considered its opinion on the State Social Protection Fund’s draft 2027 budget. That document was also approved for submission to parliament.
Approval of an audit opinion is not passage of the budget itself and does not replace parliamentary scrutiny. The brief announcement does not set out the main budget amounts or specific audit recommendations. It therefore provides no basis for conclusions about changes in taxes, social benefits or the size of the future deficit.
