Timely issuance of electronic invoices is not just a formality, but an important process for the security of any business. The Tax Code sets clear deadlines for their issuance and the consequences for their violations.Do not leave a statement of documents for the last day! Blocking access to the ESF IP system can paralyze the work of the entire company.Terms of discharge of the ESF- Total term: The ESF is issued no earlier than the date of the turnover and no later than 15 calendar days after that date.- The deadline for the month (until the 20th of the following month): It is used in the sale of electricity, water, gas, as well as for utilities, communication and forwarding services, and banking operations.- Export of goods: no later than 20 calendar days after the date of turnover.- At the request of the buyer: if the ECF statement was not mandatory initially, but the client requested the document, you have 30 calendar days after the turnover date.The main risks and consequences of late discharge of the ESFThe tax authorities carry out automatic comparative control, comparing the data of your ESF with tax reports (declarations) and the data of your suppliers.Any discrepancies can have serious consequences.:1. Suspension of ECF discharge (blocking)The tax authority has the right to block your access to the ESF IP system for just one business day if you:- did not fulfill the notice on the elimination of discrepancies on time;- they did not confirm their actual location during the check.2. Getting into the "black list" (the Register of risky taxpayers)Information about companies that have had their ESF statement suspended is publicly available on the official Internet resource. This is a blow to your business reputation: honest contractors will immediately refuse to work with you, as they will not be able to take VAT off your documents.3. Your customers have VAT issues.If the invoice is issued with violations (for example, the IIN/BIN is incorrectly specified or the document is not electronically digitally signed), your buyer automatically loses the right to credit VAT. Recommendations1. Check the taxpayer's office regularly: if you receive a notification of discrepancies in desk control, you have 30 working days to send an explanation or correct errors. Ignoring this deadline guarantees that the ESF IP will be blocked.2. Keep an eye on the validity period and correctness of the EDS: an electronic invoice is recognized as legally valid only if there is an up-to-date and correct EDS.3. Remember: a paper receipt is not a substitute for a cash register: in most cases, issuing a cash register receipt does not release you from the obligation to issue a full–fledged cash register at the request of the buyer within 15 days.Department of Explanatory Work and Contact CenterState Duma of the Pavlodar regionSource : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-pavlodar/press/news/details/1250279?lang=ru

According to Article 257 of the Tax Code, a taxpayer is entitled to deduct actually incurred expenses related to activities aimed at generating income, provided that supporting documents are available.In particular, expenses for employees’ business trips (transportation, accommodation, per diem allowances, and other payments provided for by law) may be deducted for Corporate Income Tax (CIT) purposes if the business trip is directly related to the company’s activities and aimed at generating income.At the same time, it is important to consider that:-expenses must be economically justified;-supporting documents are required;-the connection between the expenses and the taxpayer’s own activities must be confirmed.However, expenses incurred solely in the interests of another independent legal entity are not considered the taxpayer’s expenses and are not deductible.Documentary evidence may include primary accounting documents as well as other materials confirming the economic justification of the expenses and their purpose of generating income.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-vko/press/news/details/1250238?lang=ru

The right to claim Value Added Tax (VAT) as input tax credit is granted only to taxpayers that are registered for VAT purposes.If an organization is not registered as a VAT payer, the VAT charged by suppliers of goods, works, and services cannot be claimed as an input tax credit. In such cases, the VAT amount is recognized as part of the organization's expenses and affects its financial results.It should also be noted that matters related to concluding contracts with suppliers, as well as determining tariffs and preparing cost estimates for the maintenance of the common property of a condominium, are not governed by tax legislation. These issues fall within the scope of civil and housing law and are considered by the competent state authorities within their respective jurisdictions.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-vko/press/news/details/1250221?lang=ru
