On January 5, 2026, an Open Day for taxpayers was held at the premises of the State Revenue Office of the city of Ust-Kamenogorsk as part of the nationwide “People’s Accountant” campaign initiated by the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

The event was organized by the State Revenue Department for the East Kazakhstan Region in cooperation with the State Revenue Office of Ust-Kamenogorsk and was aimed at providing free consultative assistance to individual entrepreneurs and small business entities.

During the Open Day, specialists of the State Revenue Department for the East Kazakhstan Region and the State Revenue Office explained the provisions of the new Tax Code, the procedure for submitting tax returns, transitional provisions for new special tax regimes, VAT registration and deregistration procedures, as well as the use of information systems of the state revenue authorities. Taxpayers were given detailed answers to the most frequently asked questions.

Special attention during the consultations was paid to inquiries from individuals engaged in taxi services. The most frequently raised issue concerned the transition of this category of taxpayers to the self-employed regime, including the registration procedure, taxation specifics, and fulfillment of tax obligations.

Holding the Open Day within the framework of the “People’s Accountant” campaign became an important step in developing a service-oriented approach in the work of state revenue authorities, aimed at improving tax literacy and preventing violations of tax legislation.

The “People’s Accountant” campaign will run until June 30, 2026. Consultations for taxpayers will be conducted on a regular basis in accordance with the approved schedule.
