In the post-oil era, the scarcity of funds has brought forward unpredictable income sources (such as lottery proceeds, fines, and penalties) rather than fixed income sources, to boost fiscal capacity.

Baku, located on the Absheron Peninsula, is rapidly expanding into a sprawling metropolis. In the city center, high-rise buildings often violate construction regulations and density requirements, while on the outskirts, new single-story and multi-story neighborhoods are emerging. Amidst this 20-year construction boom, the creation of new cemeteries, a crucial component of urban planning, has been largely neglected. As a result, the cemeteries are overcrowded.

Since 2020, the Azerbaijani government has unwaveringly declared the resettlement of the Karabakh territories, liberated from Armenian occupation, as one of its main priorities for the next 20 years.

For this reason, registration in these districts has been halted since November 2020.
