Tax law of the Republic of Tajikistan as RAG-ready markdown: 239 documents, 16,190,962 characters, 538 markdown tables, extracted from the source PDF/DOC/PPT originals.

Derived from the public Hugging Face dataset karimraufi/andoz (snapshot 02f4e14dc20723c7441c1069b7640d28d12b73a2). The underlying documents are public acts of the Republic of Tajikistan; this repo adds the text extraction, Tajik letter restoration and metadata.

• md/<category>/*.md — one markdown file per source document, YAML front matter on each
• documents.jsonl — machine manifest, one record per document
• INDEX.md — the catalogue; COMPARISON.md — coverage vs. our prior corpora
• MANIFEST.md — how it was built and every decision behind it

Language: 67 Tajik, 171 Russian, 1 English.

Tajik correctness: 56 of the source PDFs stored Tajik in a pre-Unicode encoding where њ ќ ѓ ї љ ў stand for ҳ қ ғ ӣ ҷ ӯ. Those were mapped back and every output file audited — 0 files carry residual legacy characters.

Tables are real markdown tables, not flattened text: plain extraction turns the land-tax rate tables into column-order soup that detaches every number from its district.

Known limits

• The Tax Code is present in 18 editions (76% of all characters). documents.jsonl marks exactly one status: current (17.12.2025) and the rest superseded — filter on it, or every article query returns eighteen near-identical passages.
• All 18 Code editions are Russian or English; there is no Tajik Tax Code here.
• rates: 9 files are suffixed _2022, 3 are dated 2026, 11 carry no year. rate_year is set only where the filename states it; the rest are undetermined rather than guessed.
• Merged header cells in some wide rate tables can duplicate a column name across columns; the data rows are correct.
