This economy profile presents the Doing
Business indicators for Afghanistan. To allow useful
comparison, it also provides data for other selected
economies (comparator economies) for each indicator. Doing
Business sheds light on how easy or difficult it is for a
local entrepreneur to open and run a small to medium-size
business when complying with relevant regulations. It
measures and tracks changes in regulations affecting 11
areas in the life cycle of a business: starting a business,
dealing with construction permits, getting electricity,
registering property, getting credit, protecting minority
investors, paying taxes, trading across borders, enforcing
contracts, resolving insolvency, and labor market
regulation. Doing Business 2017 presents the data for the
labor market regulation indicators in an annex. In a series
of annual reports Doing Business presents quantitative
indicators on business regulations and the protection of
property rights that can be compared across 190 economies,
from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, over time. The data set covers
48 economies in Sub-Saharan Africa, 32 in Latin America and
the Caribbean, 25 in East Asia and the Pacific, 25 in
Eastern Europe and Central Asia, 20 in the Middle East and
North Africa, and 8 in South Asia, as well as 32
Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development
(OECD) high-income economies. The indicators are used to
analyze economic outcomes and identify what reforms have
worked, where, and why. The data in this report are current
as of June 1, 2016 (except for the paying taxes indicators,
