History has clearly proven to us one truth: the stability and prosperity of a state are directly related to peace within the country and the unity of the people. As world experience shows, societies with shaken unity do not last long, internal conflicts and discord hinder their development, and even lead to their destruction. On the contrary, countries with harmony, united by a common goal, stand out from the crowd and take a leading position on the path of civilization. Kazakhstan is a country that has made unity its main value. Since gaining independence, the country's leadership has made social harmony and interethnic harmony the main pillars of national security and development. This is not a random decision, but a principle born of centuries of historical experience. In the 20th century, the Kazakh people went through many critical periods. Famine, persecution, World War II, land reclamation, mass migration - all this radically changed the country's demography and created an ethnically diverse society. But this diversity, rather than causing division, became the basis for a fusion of cultures and cooperation. The principle "Kazakhstan is our common home" has become not just a slogan, but a real way of life. Representatives of different ethnic groups contribute equally to the development of the state, working shoulder to shoulder in the fields of science, education, art, business and public administration. The people respect each other's language and traditions, and continue the principle of respecting the elders and caring for the younger ones from generation to generation. Unity is not just a moral value, it is a system anchored by concrete mechanisms. Social harmony, civil equality, the rule of law, public dialogue - all this strengthens our stability. Institutions such as the Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan have become an effective platform for strengthening harmony and peace within the country. In the era of globalization, external influences and internal challenges are increasing. Disinformation in the information space, provocative actions, economic and geopolitical changes - all this can test the integrity of any state. In such a period, the strength we need most is unity. If we continue on this path, maintaining mutual trust, respect and understanding, Kazakhstan will remain an unshakable state. Our unity is our main defense, and our peace is the guarantee of our confidence in the future.

The practical issues of applying the new Tax Code are important for the effective work of entrepreneurs. Knowledge of changes in tax reporting, the procedure for inspections and support measures helps businesses avoid mistakes and sanctions, as well as maximize the opportunities provided by law. To this end, the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan is conducting an information campaign in all regions of the country, explaining the main provisions of the code and answering relevant questions from business representatives. This type of work enhances tax literacy, builds trust, and promotes a transparent, predictable business environment.The next seminar was held in Petropavlovsk. The North Kazakhstan region is one of the leading agricultural regions of the country, with more than 42,000 small and medium-sized businesses. The event was attended by more than 500 representatives of LLP, sole proprietors and agricultural enterprises of the region, as well as representatives of the Atameken Chamber of Entrepreneurs. Zhanybek Nurzhanov, Deputy Chairman of the State Revenue Committee, spoke about the changes in legislation.He said that the new Tax Code provides agribusiness with significant fiscal advantages. Among them: a preferential corporate income tax rate of 3% for agricultural producers, a special tax regime for small and medium-sized peasant or farm enterprises has been preserved, the additional VAT offset has not only been preserved, but also its size has been increased from 70% to 80%. Among the innovations in the vehicle tax, an additional benefit per pickup truck is provided for those applying a special tax regime for peasant or farm farms.These conditions create a stable and profitable business environment for farmers, reducing the tax burden and stimulating investment in the industry.In addition, simplified tax mechanisms are provided: the single land tax is abolished, the number of special regimes is reduced to three, and the introduction of digital services, including mobile applications for the self-employed, allows taxpayers to verify declarations and pay taxes online. This reduces the bureaucratic burden and increases the transparency of administration."The benefits provided by the new Tax Code for farmers can become a serious incentive for the development of agriculture. Simplification of tax administration, reduction of the tax burden and simplification of procedures create favorable conditions for expanding production, modernizing farms and attracting investments in the agricultural sector," said Deputy Chairman of the State Revenue Committee of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan Zhanybek Nurzhanov.The next seminar will be held on August 14 in Kokshetau, Akmola region.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/minfin/press/news/details/1050524?lang=kk
