The centrepiece of the Law on Land Reform is the creation of Special Land Funds administered by local authorities, for the assignment of user rights thereon, including, in particular, lease rights, to individuals and concerns. Private ownership of land is contemplated only as a result of the disbanding of collective enterprises (art. 14), but it is the stated policy of the Republic of Tajikistan not to restore ownership of land formerly held by "ancestors" and religious institutions (art. 2.2).

The Act provides for a system for the disposal of national lands, i.e. lands held by the Government. National lands can be disposed of through lease (sect. 7) or sale (sect. 13). Leases are granted against payment of rent, arrears of which are recoverable in court (sect. 10). Applicants for leases in excess of 500 hectares must file an Environmental Impact Assessment, prior to the grant and every five years thereafter. The Minister has authority to impose this same requirement on applicants for leases covering a lesser land surface (sects. 9(4) and (5)).

This Act lays down basic provisions on land tenure, both urban and rural. land can be owned only by Lithuanian citizens, or by the State (art. 3). Private ownership of land conveys certain standard rights and privileges, amounting to the free and unimpeded enjoyment and disposition of the owner's property (art. 7). Usufructury rights accrue to the leaseholders of private and State-owned land (art. 8).
