Intellectual property protection at the border 15.07.2026
Have you ever wondered why there are fewer fakes on store shelves? One of the leading roles is played by the customs authorities of the RK, who combat counterfeit goods around the clock.How does it work in practice? Customs Registries Right holders enter their trademarks into special registers:The National Registry of the RK, maintained by the authorized body.The Unified Registry of the EAEU, valid throughout the Union. Protection is provided for up to 2 years with the possibility of extension. Suspension of Goods Release If customs detects signs of rights infringement (e.g., a famous brand logo on a suspicious product):For registry goods: the release is suspended for 10 working days. At the request of the right holder, the term may be extended for another 10 days if they have applied to court.For goods NOT in the registry (ex officio): customs may suspend release for up to 3 working days if there is information about the right holder in the RK. Interaction of Parties Customs notifies both the importer and the right holder about the delay within 1 working day, providing their contact details to each other for resolution. Destruction of Counterfeits If a court recognizes the goods as infringing IP rights, such goods are subject to destruction.🛑 Important Exception: Protection measures do not apply to goods transported by individuals for personal use (including international mail).Business should remember: the right holder is liable for damages caused to the importer if the infringement is ultimately not proven in court.Knowing these rules helps honest businesses avoid delays and brand owners protect their reputation! 📈Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-zhetysu/press/news/details/1256148?lang=ru

Совет ЕЭК поддержал предложение Казахстана о продлении срока использования навигационных пломб 15.07.2026
На заседании Совета ЕЭК, прошедшем в онлайн режиме, казахстанская сторона во главе с заместителем Премьер-министра - министром национальной экономики Сериком Жумангариным выступила с инициативой продлить срок использования навигационных пломб, произведенных в третьих странах и применяемых для отслеживания перевозок товаров.Необходимость принятия такого решения связана с тем, что в соответствии с действующим решением Совета ЕЭК с 7 сентября 2026 года операторы государств-участников ЕАЭС должны использовать исключительно навигационные пломбы, произведенные на территории Союза. В Казахстане национальным оператором отслеживания грузоперевозок является Институт космической техники и технологий Министерства искусственного интеллекта и цифрового развития. Помимо собственных устройств оператор использует около 10 тыс. арендованных навигационных пломб, произведенных в третьих странах, со сроком аренды два года. Их досрочная замена повлечет дополнительные расходы. При этом действующие производственные мощности стран ЕАЭС пока не позволяют в полном объеме обеспечить потребность Казахстана в навигационных пломбах.Вместе с тем в Казахстане уже определены предприятия, которые наладят их локальное производство. Для запуска производства потребуется время.По итогам обсуждения Совет ЕЭК поддержал предложение казахстанской стороны и продлил срок вступления решения Евразийской комиссии до 1 января 2028 года.Кроме того, Совет ЕЭК одобрил изменения в Положение о едином порядке проведения совместных проверок объектов и отбора проб продукции, подлежащей ветеринарному контролю. Согласно поправкам, уполномоченные органы получают право инициировать исключение из реестра предприятий третьих стран, которые в течение более пяти лет не осуществляли поставки подконтрольной продукции на территорию государств ЕАЭС.Также одобрены изменения в технический регламент ЕАЭС «О безопасности парфюмерно-косметической продукции». Они предусматривают продление на один год срока вступления в силу обязательного требования о проведении двойного токсикологического тестирования продукции. Решение принято с учетом ограниченного количества аккредитованных лабораторий, имеющих возможность проводить такие исследования.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1256097?lang=ru

Министерство национальной экономики на основе данных Бюро национальной статистики проанализировало динамику реальных денежных доходов населения по итогам I квартала 2026 года.По данным БНС, в I квартале 2026 года реальные денежные доходы населения Казахстана впервые за последний год вышли в положительную динамику. По сравнению с аналогичным периодом прошлого года они увеличились на 0,1%.Среднедушевые номинальные денежные доходы населения составили 252 619 тенге в месяц, что на 11,8% выше уровня I квартала 2025 года. Важным фактором стало постепенное замедление инфляционных процессов, в частности, стабилизация потребительских цен. Стоит отметить, что уровень годовой инфляции с начала года устойчиво замедляется и снизился в июне т.г. до 10,3%.Доходы от работы по найму остаются основным источником благосостояния граждан, формируя около двух третей всех денежных доходов населения. При этом уровень оплаты труда существенно различается по отраслям экономики.По итогам I квартала 2026 года среднемесячная номинальная заработная плата выросла на 9,1%, а индекс реальной заработной платы составил 97,7%. При этом динамика оплаты труда существенно различалась по видам экономической деятельности.Наиболее высокий рост среднемесячной заработной платы по сравнению с аналогичным периодом прошлого года зафиксирован в сельском хозяйстве — на 20,3% ( в реальном выражении - на 7,7%), финансовой и страховой деятельности — на 18,1% ( 5,7%), транспорте и складировании — на 12,9% (1,1%), в обрабатывающей промышленности — на 14% ( 2,1%). Это свидетельствует о сохранении опережающего роста оплаты труда в ряде отраслей, прежде всего, ненефтяного сектора экономики.

В промышленности заработная плата увеличилась на 11,6%, в том числе в обрабатывающей промышленности — на 14%. Это свидетельствует о сохранении опережающего роста оплаты труда в ряде отраслей, прежде всего ненефтяного сектора экономики.Высокие темпы роста заработной платы в ненефтяном секторе экономики имеет важное значение, поскольку отражает постепенное расширение возможностей для повышения доходов населения за счет развития производства, роста производительности труда и создания качественных рабочих мест.Министерство национальной экономики отмечает, что дальнейший устойчивый рост реальных доходов населения остается одной из ключевых задач экономической политики Правительства. Для этого реализуется Комплексный план по повышению доходов населения, который предусматривает комплекс мер по увеличению оплаты труда, включая поэтапное повышение минимальной заработной платы, созданию качественных рабочих мест, повышению производительности труда, поддержке предпринимательства и развитию отраслей с высокой добавленной стоимостью. В сочетании с дальнейшим снижением инфляционного давления реализация этих мер должна обеспечить более устойчивый рост реальных доходов и повышение благосостояния граждан.В соответствии Программой совместных действий Правительства, Нацбанка и АРРФР на 2026-2028 годы целевой рост реальных доходов населения составляет не ниже 2-3% ежегодно.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1256047?lang=ru
