I have an empty tags which want to remove from tif wout copying process. I tried TIFFSetField(tif, TIFFTAG_DOCUMENTNAME, ""); but tag still seats in the file. Is it possible to drop an empty ascii tags?

Try TIFFClrFieldBit(tif, FIELD_DOCUMENTNAME), a macro defined in tif_dir.h. Note: use FIELD_DOCUMENTNAME, not TIFFTAG_DOCUMENTNAME! I've never used it, but it looks like it does what you want. I don't think there currently is a public function for this, but I think it would be a good idea to have one.
