Over the past two years, the Canine Center of Military Unit 6654 of the National Guard of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan has raised 60 service dog puppies. In the near future, many of them will join National Guard units and begin performing service and operational duties.Located in the city of Alatau, the Canine Center is the only facility within the National Guard that both trains military dog handlers and breeds service dogs. The center raises German Shepherds, Belgian Malinois, and Dutch Shepherds. Last year, it successfully welcomed its first litter of Dutch Shepherd puppies, expanding the range of service dog breeds used by the National Guard.From their first months of life, the puppies are carefully assessed for temperament, activity, and working potential. By the age of six months, specialists determine each dog's future specialization. Some are trained to detect narcotics, others to locate explosives, while others are prepared for patrol duties, tracking, and apprehending offenders.Service dogs trained at the center work alongside National Guard personnel every day. They assist in maintaining public order, securing major public events, detecting prohibited substances and weapons, and searching for missing persons.In 2025 alone, National Guard canine teams carried out more than 3,500 operational missions, with over 120 resulting in successful outcomes. Service dogs helped detain 81 suspects involved in criminal offenses, detect and seize more than 210 kilograms of plant-based and synthetic narcotics, uncover 14 bladed weapons and 7 firearms, and locate 17 missing persons.Every puppy raised at the center is a future four-legged partner to a serviceman, whose training often plays a vital role in protecting public safety and ensuring the successful completion of operational missions. Press Service of the National Guard of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of KazakhstanSource : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kvv/press/news/details/1259382?lang=ru

An incorrectly filled payment document is one of the most common reasons goods get "stuck" at the border. Even a single-digit error can cause the payment to go unrecognized, preventing the timely release of your customs declaration.Common mistakes when paying to BCC (Budget Classification Codes) 106104, 106201, and 105102: BCC ConfusionPayers often send funds to the wrong code. Here is a reminder:BCC 106104 — Import Customs Duty (distributed among EAEU member states).BCC 106201 — Customs Fees (fixed fee for processing services).BCC 105102 — VAT on Imported Goods (for goods imported from non-EAEU countries). Incorrect State Revenue Authority (SRA) CodeFunds must be sent specifically to the department where the customs clearance is being processed. If the SRA code is incorrect, the payment will not appear in your personal account, and the system will not register the payment during declaration. BIN/IIN ErrorsThis is especially important for companies with branch networks. The payment must be made in the name of the entity listed as the declarant. Insufficient Funds (Exchange Rate Fluctuations)If customs duties are calculated based on a foreign currency, it is crucial to use the exchange rate applicable on the day the declaration is registered. Even a small shortfall of a few tenge due to rate changes can block the release of your goods.✅ PRE-PAYMENT CHECKLIST:Verify the BCC (Budget Classification Code).Double-check the SRA Code (where the goods are being imported).Ensure the payer's BIN/IIN matches the official documents.Pay a slightly higher amount if the exchange rate is volatile.Save your time and avoid stress — check your details before hitting "Pay"! 💻📱Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-zhetysu/press/news/details/1259346?lang=ru
