The regional forum of akims of all levels was held in Zerendinsky district. Ainur Yelikbayeva, Head of the Department of State Revenues in Akmola Region, made an explanation of the new Tax Code.

Among the important changes that piqued the interest of participants:

• maintaining and expanding tax incentives for agricultural producers, including reduced rates and additional deductions;

• transition to a simple and understandable system of special tax regimes - now there are only three of them, with minimal reporting;

• abolition of the single land tax, which makes it possible to more flexibly take into account the specifics of land use and facilitates the burden on farmers;

• the introduction of remote services - mobile applications and online platforms allow you to submit declarations, track the status of reporting and pay taxes without visiting government revenue bodies;

• maintaining the mechanism of additional VAT offset, with an increase in its share to 80%, which is especially important for agricultural enterprises purchasing equipment and resources;

• a new transport exemption - a one-pick-up tax exemption under the Farm SAR.

       The seminar participants actively asked questions related to the practical application of new norms, the calculation of taxes at new rates, the procedure for using digital services and the adjustment of previously submitted declarations. One of the main goals of the new Tax Code is to support small and medium-sized businesses, as well as to stimulate priority sectors of the economy through a system of tax breaks.
