One of the mechanisms for the compulsory collection of tax debt provided for by law is the collection of a taxpayer’s (tax agent’s) tax debt from funds held in the bank accounts of its debtors.The taxpayer is required, within 10 business days from the date of receipt of the notification on repayment of tax debt, to submit to the state revenue authority a list of its debtors, indicating the amount of accounts receivable owed by each debtor.At the same time, the state revenue authority has the right to independently identify debtors using data from information systems, as well as, within the framework of an audit, establish settlements between the taxpayer and its debtors. If necessary, a counter-audit of the debtor may be conducted.It is important to note that accounts receivable amounts disputed in court are not confirmed by the state revenue authority.After establishing information regarding the accounts receivable, the debtor is sent a notification confirming the debt. Within 20 business days from the day following the date of receipt of the notification, the debtor shall submit a reconciliation statement of mutual settlements and/or documents confirming the existence of the debt.If the debtor agrees to have the debt amount debited from its bank account to repay the taxpayer’s tax debt, the debtor shall provide the state revenue authority with information regarding the relevant bank account. In this case, a reconciliation statement is not required. The state revenue authority issues a collection order (incasso order) against the specified bank account.If, within one day, there are insufficient funds in the specified account or no funds are available, the collection order is issued against all bank accounts of the debtor.If the debtor does not confirm the debt or fails to submit the required documents within the prescribed period, the state revenue authority, within 1 business day, takes measures to suspend debit transactions on the debtor’s bank accounts. A tax audit of the debtor is subsequently conducted.After the amount of the accounts receivable has been confirmed, the state revenue authority issues a collection order (incasso order) against the debtor’s bank account for an amount not exceeding the taxpayer’s tax debt.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-vko/press/news/details/1285959?lang=ru

They are located in the Triathlon Park and Uly Dala Park. This year, the work has continued, with new complexes installed in Konai and Keruen parks. Another complex is currently being constructed on Youth Boulevard. The work is scheduled to be completed by September 15.Today, I visited the children’s playground in the Airport residential area and inspected the condition of the facility and the organization of the surrounding territory.This year, 39 children’s and sports grounds are being installed in the regional center under two programs. Ten of them are being implemented as part of the housing and utilities sector, while 29 are being carried out through the “Participatory Budget” initiative.Once all this year’s projects are completed, the number of courtyards equipped with children’s and sports grounds will reach 362.

Kazakhstan has a multi-level system of social support for people with disabilities. It includes State social benefits, payments from the State Social Insurance Fund, as well as insurance payments in cases where disability has occurred as a result of a work injury or occupational disease.Today, more than 544 thousand people receive state social benefits for disability. The key type of monetary support is the state social benefit, the amount of which depends on the established disability group and cause.In 2026, in case of disability due to a general illness, the amount of the benefit is 111,873 tenge for persons with disabilities of group I, 89,498 tenge for group II and 61,022 tenge for group III.If social contributions were paid for a citizen to the State Social Insurance Fund, he may additionally receive a social payment in case of disability. Its amount is determined individually, taking into account the income from which social contributions were made, the degree of general disability and the duration of participation in the compulsory social insurance system.Insurance benefits are provided for employees whose disability has occurred as a result of a work-related accident or an occupational disease. Thus, depending on the life situation, government and insurance support can complement each other.Separate measures are provided for citizens who take care of a person with a group I disability, as well as for a mother, father, adoptive parent, guardian or trustee raising a child with a disability. The amount of the corresponding monthly state allowance in 2026 is 81,871 tenge.Disability payments can be made through the Government for Citizens State Corporation, eGov portal.kz or in a proactive format. After the disability is established, an SMS message is sent to the citizen with a proposal to apply for benefits. To assign it, it is enough to confirm the consent with a reply message.The system receives most of the necessary information from government information systems. This allows you to reduce the number of requested documents and in some cases assign a payment without a personal request from a citizen.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/social-abay/press/news/details/1285893?lang=ru

The Department of State Revenue for the Mangystau Region addresses citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan who study at foreign universities, and their families. Universal declaration is not a “tax on education”. It is transparency of assets and income. Most students do not have to file. There are, however, clear cases when the duty arises — and they must be known before 15 September 2026. Deadline for declarations for tax year 2025: no later than 15 September 2026. Payment of personal income tax (if assessed): no later than 25 September 2026.  Who is a “student studying abroad” for tax purposes Citizens of Kazakhstan enrolled full-time (or in an equivalent mode) in a foreign higher-education institution: bachelor’s, master’s, doctoral programmes, academic mobility and intergovernmental grants (including Bolashak and host-country scholarships).Residency nuance. A citizen of Kazakhstan who is abroad specifically for study generally retains tax-resident status of Kazakhstan for the period of study. Income and assets may therefore fall within the Kazakhstani tax field even if the student lives in another country.  The core rule for 2025–2026 From 1 January 2025 the fourth wave of universal declaration for “everybody else” was cancelled. Pensioners, private-sector employees, homemakers and students are exempt from mandatory filing — unless special grounds exist.Studying abroad does not by itself require Form 250.00 or Form 270.00. The duty appears only when the facts listed below are present.  When a student abroad MUST file Ground A. Funds in foreign bank accounts If, as at 31 December 2025, the aggregate balance of money in bank accounts held with foreign banks outside Kazakhstan exceeded 1,000 MCI, a declaration is mandatory.1,000 MCI as at 31.12.2025 = KZT 3,932,000 (2025 monthly calculation index = KZT 3,932).All foreign accounts are added together. A scholarship account in the country of study, a campus living card issued by a foreign bank, a savings account — all count. This threshold is the one that most often triggers the duty for students: scholarships and grants are usually paid into a foreign account. If more than about KZT 3.93 million remained on the accounts at year-end, Form 270.00 is required. Ground B. Registrable property abroad File if the student (or a title in the student’s name) holds assets outside Kazakhstan whose rights are registered with foreign authorities: an apartment or room, house, land, car, motorcycle, boat, a share in a foreign company, securities of foreign issuers, a brokerage account, investment gold, intellectual-property rights, digital assets. Ground C. Large transactions If during 2025 property was acquired for more than 20,000 MCI (KZT 78,640,000 at the 2025 MCI), the source of funds is disclosed in the declaration. Ground D. Other special categories Students who are also candidates for elective office or their spouses; persons subject to anti-corruption restrictions; major participants of banks / insurers / the securities market; private practitioners; holders of digital assets.  Foreign university scholarships and grants: what changed Until 2026, foreign scholarships and grants formally formed part of an individual’s annual income and were not in the privileged list that covers Kazakhstani university awards and Bolashak. The State Revenue Committee explained that such amounts were to be shown on Form 270.00, with 10% PIT, subject to a credit for tax already paid abroad under double-tax treaties.On 1 January 2026 the new Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan (No. 214-VIII of 18 July 2025) entered into force. It expressly provides for a reduction (in practice, an exemption) of income in the form of scholarships and grants paid to persons studying at educational organisations outside Kazakhstan.Practical takeaway. Scholarships for 2026 onwards are in a privileged regime. The September 2026 filing covers calendar year 2025. If the only “foreign” fact is a scholarship, account balances are below the threshold and there is no registered property abroad, an ordinary student generally has no filing duty. If the account threshold is exceeded or registered property exists, a declaration is required regardless of the scholarship relief.  Which forms - Form 250.00 — declaration of assets and liabilities (the “entry” form). Filed once when the duty to record accumulated foreign assets arises.- Form 270.00 — declaration of income and property (the annual form). Covers calendar-year income, foreign accounts above the threshold, acquisitions and digital assets.If both duties arise in the same year because of foreign property, Form 250.00 is in practice the form to file. Voluntary filing of either form is allowed.  How to file while living abroad A personal visit to Aktau is not required. A student may file online around the clock via:- Taxpayer Cabinet — cabinet.salyk.kz- e-Government portal — egov.kz- Mobile apps: e-Salyq Azamat, eGov mobile, Halyk, bcc.kz, Kaspi.kzA digital signature is not always required; SMS, biometrics or bank apps may suffice. Renew the EDS at a PSC or via eGov before it expires during the study period.Attach as needed: a foreign bank statement as at 31 December (with translation), a property purchase or lease contract, a vehicle registration certificate, a university scholarship letter, evidence of tax paid abroad (for a credit).  If you miss the deadline Failure to file on time triggers administrative liability under the Code of Administrative Offences: a warning or a fine for a first offence, a higher fine for a repeat offence within a year (indicative levels: 15 and 30 MCI). Concealing foreign accounts or property may lead to additional tax, late-payment interest and more serious consequences if discovered through automatic exchange of information (CRS / tax treaties).Kazakhstan receives data on residents’ accounts in foreign banks. An “invisible” foreign account is an illusion.  Checklist for a Mangystau student abroad Check every foreign account balance as at 31.12.2025. Above KZT 3,932,000? Prepare Form 270.00.Apartment, car or company share abroad in your name? Filing is mandatory.Scholarship only, balances below the threshold, no property — filing is usually not required.Keep bank statements and a university certificate — useful for the declaration, compulsory health insurance (OSMS) and military deferment via eGov.Use the eGov service “Registration of students studying abroad” — not a tax filing, but needed for OSMS status and several public services.File by 15 September 2026. Do not leave it to the last day. The Department’s message to Mangystau students: study abroad is a source of regional pride. A timely declaration, when it is required, is not bureaucracy — it is protection of your name and future career. One evening in the e-Salyq app is better than years of correspondence over a “forgotten” account.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-mangistau/press/news/details/1285509?lang=ru
