What Azərbaycan Respublikasının Dövlət Şəhərsalma və Arxitektura Komitəsi does

Azərbaycan Respublikasının Dövlət Şəhərsalma və Arxitektura Komitəsi (the State Committee on Urban Planning and Architecture of the Republic of Azerbaijan, operating under the acronym ARXKOM) is a central state administrative body headquartered in Baku, established in 2006 under the Office of the President, with exclusive statutory jurisdiction over construction permitting, architectural project review, and urban planning compliance across Azerbaijan's 10 economic regions. Its digital core comprises the E-Tikinti single-window permitting platform, the Tikintilərin Dövlət Reyestri (State Construction Registry), the İnteraktiv Xəritə interactive mapping system covering all economic regions, the Şəhərsalma Kadastrı (Urban Planning Cadastre), the Bakının Baş Planı (Baku Master Plan), and a normative documents portal, all integrated with Azerbaijan's national e-gov.az electronic government infrastructure.

The Committee delivers services through a national network of wholly-owned subordinate organizations, including the Baku City Main Directorate of Architecture and Urban Planning (operating since 1969), the Karabakh Regional General Directorate (established 2021 to oversee liberated territories), Azərmemarlayihə DBLİ, AZİMETİ, the Baku State Design Institute, and the Ərazi Tikinti-Planlaşdırma Mərkəzi. It serves construction companies and developers, other government bodies, and individual citizens and property owners requiring permits, compliance verification, and cadastre access, while engaging in bilateral and multilateral international cooperation in urban planning and construction regulation.

The Committee does not operate a commercial revenue model; its activities are funded through the Azerbaijani state budget as public administrative functions, with any specific permitting and documentation fees not publicly disclosed. Operating leadership is structured around Chairman Anar Quliyev, First Deputy Chairman Namiq Hummatov, and Deputy Chairmen Dovletkhan Dovletkhanov and İlgar İsbatov. The organization reports an employee headcount in the 101-250 range and maintains an active public-facing presence through its multilingual website, social media accounts, and rotating regional citizen receptions.
