In Soviet times, the club was an army team.

After Uzbekistani independence, the first Championship of Uzbekistan was played in 1992, and Sogdiana was included in the Highest League of the country. In that season, Sogdiana sensationally won bronze medals, and the championship was divided by Pakhtakor and Neftchi Ferghana because of the same number of points, and therefore silver medals were not awarded in that season to anyone. Until 2002 Sogdiana participated in the Higher League, but in the 2002 season took the last 16th place, flew to the Uzbekistan First League. In 2003, taking first place in the First League, is back in the Higher League, but in 2006 was again relegated to the second division.
