Beware of scammers! UAPF warns of new schemes targeting contributors 30.06.2026
UAPF branches have been frequently contacted by contributors claiming to be failing to pay compulsory pension contributions. Fraudsters, posing as Fund employees, call and report the discovery of several years of work experience not included in the total length of service for pension calculations, offering to recalculate their pensions upward.How do the scammers operate?To resolve these issues, and to establish a more trusting relationship, the scammers provide the address and invite the beneficiaries to actual Fund branches. According to the contributors/ beneficiaries, for supposed convenience and faster service, the scammers offer to reserve an online queue and ask for a code from an SMS message. Unfortunately, some recipients have already provided the codes to the scammers. Important: UAPF employees do not call or request SMS codes, passwords, card details, or other confidential information by phone, email, or messaging apps. UAPF provides all services completely free of charge. Pension benefits are processed strictly in accordance with established legal procedures. If the caller knows your name, IIN, address, or place of work, this does not mean they are an official. This information could have been obtained by scammers from open sources.How can you protect yourself?∙ Do not share SMS codes or personal information with anyone under any circumstances.∙ Interrupt suspicious calls immediately if codes from messages are mentioned.∙ Verify information yourself through official channels (call centers, official apps, or websites).∙ Contact the police at the slightest suspicion of fraud.Be vigilant and warn your loved ones, especially elderly relatives!

ANNOUNCEMENT UAPF reminds people to apply for pension benefits in a timely manner 30.06.2026
The UAPF continuously conducts outreach efforts on the need for both beneficiaries and heirs of deceased individuals with UAPF savings to claim their pension benefis in a timely manner.Every year, the UAPF verifies with the State Corporation "Government for Citizens" the records of individuals who have reached retirement age and who have pension savings through compulsory pension contributions (CPCs) and compulsory occupational pension contributions (COPCs) to the UAPF and who have not applied to the UAPF for their benefit. These individuals are verified in the information system of the authorized body in the sphere of social protection of the population for pension benefits assigned from budgetary funds based on age, length of service, and the state basic pension benefit.Since March of this year, a no-application procedure for pension benefits through voluntary pension contributions (VPC) has been introduced for individuals who have reached retirement age and have pension savings in the UAPF through VPC, including those who have not applied to the UAPF for payment due to reaching the age of fifty or disability. This procedure also requires an annual reconciliation with the Government for Citizens State Corporation.Based on the results of the annual reconciliation, the UAPF makes pension benefit payments to beneficiaies proactively (without an application) through the State Corporation. This means that pensioners receiving a pension from the state budget begin receiving payments from the UAPF if they have pension savings formed through the CPC, COPC, and VPC.StatisticsAs of May 1, 2026, the total amount of unclaimed pension savings in individual pension savings accounts (IPSAs) for accounting for the compulsory pension contributions of 279,041 individuals who have reached the generally established retirement age is approximately 45 billion tenge. Of these, according to information obtained by UAPF from government information systems, the following are true:- 155,217 individuals are deceased and their pension savings can be claimed by their heirs;- 61,459 individuals have registered for permanent residence outside the Republic of Kazakhstan in accordance with the procedure established by law;- 62,365 individuals have not yet applied to the State Corporation (PSC at their place of residence) to apply for their old-age pensions.How to receive pension benefits?Let us remind you that pension savings are subject to accounting in the IPSA of contributors (beneficiaries) in the UAPF, continue to be invested and remain in the IPSA of contributors until they are claimed by the beneficiaries or their heirs (in the event of the death of the beneficiary).Upon reaching the generally established retirement ageTo claim pension benefits from the UAPF upon reaching retirement age, as well as basic and solidarity pensions from the state budget, beneficiaries must contact the State Corporation "Government for Citizens" (PSC) at their place of residence.If a beneficiary has VPC pension savings in the UAPF for which they have not previously applied (due to reaching age 50 or disability), they will also be assigned pension benefits from the UAPF through the VPC.When leaving for permanent residenceForeigners and stateless persons who have permanently resided outside the Republic of Kazakhstan and who have pension savings in the UAPF may exercise their right to pension benefits from the UAPF in connection with their departure for permanent residence outside the Republic of Kazakhstan, unless otherwise provided by the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan and international treaties ratified by the Republic of Kazakhstan.In connection with the death of a person with pension savingsIn the event of the death of a person with pension savings in the UAPF, their UAPF family members are paid a one-time funeral payment from the deceased person's pension savings up to an amount equal to 94 times the monthly calculation index established for the relevant financial year by the law on the republican budget, but no more than the deceased person's available IPSA funds.Pension and targeted savings are also inherited in accordance with the procedures established by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Within six months of the death of a person with savings, their heirs must contact a notary to register the deceased person's savings and obtain a certificate of inheritance. If the deadline is missed, they must apply to the courts to restore their inheritance rights.A list of required documents for receiving pension benefits, depending on the type of pension benefit and the method of application, is available on the enpf.kz website in the "Services - Pension Benefits" section.

During the summit, the presidency of the Alliance transitioned from United Arab Emirates University to Chulalongkorn University.Held under the theme «Shaping Future Universities: Industry Engagement and Governance Innovation», the forum focused on two key questions facing universities today: how governance models must evolve to support institutional agility and how stronger partnerships between universities and industry can better prepare students for the future.«The centre of gravity of higher education has shifted in the last two or so decades. Today, some of the most dynamic and globally relevant research-intensive universities are in Asia. The fifteen Asian Universities Alliance members include both established powerhouses such as Tsinghua University, Peking University, the University of Tokyo, Seoul National University and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, and smaller, more focused centres of excellence such as the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay and Nazarbayev University.

Мажилис одобрил поправки по таможенному регулированию электронной торговли 30.06.2026
Мажилис одобрил в первом чтении проект Закона «О внесении изменений и дополнений в Кодекс «О таможенном регулировании в Республике Казахстан». Документ предусматривает введение отдельной категории товаров электронной торговли, нового вида декларации и оператора электронной торговли.Как сообщил первый вице-министр национальной экономики Азамат Амрин, поправки предполагают выделение товаров, пересылаемых в международных почтовых отправлениях от зарубежных интернет-площадок из третьих стран в адрес физических лиц, в отдельную категорию — «товары электронной торговли».Кроме того, в законодательство вводится понятие «оператор электронной торговли», а также новый вид таможенного документа - декларация электронной торговли.По словам Азамата Амрина, сейчас товары, приобретаемые на зарубежных интернет-площадках, относятся к товарам для личного пользования и декларируются только при превышении норм беспошлинного ввоза. «При этом товары электронной торговли предназначены исключительно для личного пользования физических лиц и не связаны с предпринимательской деятельностью. Сейчас указанные товары не включаются в официальную статистику, так как не относятся к торговому обороту. Декларирование всего объема таких отправлений позволит сформировать полную и точную статистику товаров, приобретаемых на зарубежных интернет-площадках», - отметил первый вице-министр.По его словам, поправки направлены на упрощение таможенных процедур для населения, повышение прозрачности трансграничной электронной торговли и формирование полной статистики импорта товаров.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/1233444?lang=ru
