Dashoguz International Airport (IATA: TAZ, ICAO: UTAT) is the primary commercial airport serving the city of Daşoguz in northern Turkmenistan, near the border with Uzbekistan. It handles both domestic and limited international flights, connecting the region to the capital Ashgabat and select destinations abroad. The airport operates under the management of Turkmenistan's civil aviation authorities and is served primarily by Turkmenistan Airlines, the national carrier. As with most regional airports in Turkmenistan, passenger traffic is modest, reflecting the country's relatively limited civil aviation market and controlled travel environment. Daşoguz is the administrative center of the Daşoguz Province, and the airport plays an important role in linking this remote northern region to the rest of the country and facilitating access for the local population.
