On the practice of taxation of subjects of natural monopoliesIn order to clarify the practice of taxation of subjects of natural monopolies (SEM), the following is reported.According to the information of the Committee on Regulation of Natural Monopolies of the Ministry of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the formation of tariffs for regulated services is carried out in accordance with Article 118 of the Entrepreneurial Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the legislation on natural monopolies.In accordance with subparagraph 13) of Article 4 of the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On Natural Monopolies", regulated services are goods, works and services provided by subjects of natural monopolies and subject to state regulation.At the same time, the investment program, according to subparagraph 7) of Article 4 of the said Law, is a set of investment measures aimed at developing, modernizing and maintaining infrastructure, as well as achieving established technical, economic and environmental indicators.In accordance with paragraph 6 of Article 21 of the Law, the implementation of the investment program, as well as the repayment of borrowed funds raised for its implementation, is carried out at the expense of profits and depreciation included in the tariff.Thus, the profit and depreciation deductions included in the tariff have a strictly targeted purpose and should be used exclusively for the implementation of approved investment programs. The use of these funds in a free or residual manner within the framework of the costly tariff method is not provided.In addition, the tariff estimate includes other expenses necessary for the implementation of regulated activities, including labor costs, mandatory deductions, acquisition of strategic resources (coal, fuel oil, electricity, water, and others), depreciation, repairs, and investment measures.Consequently, the tariff provides for the reimbursement of economically justified costs and the formation of funds allocated for the development of infrastructure and the implementation of investment programs.In this regard, the application of the tax and budget legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan should be carried out taking into account the requirements of the relevant legislation on natural monopolies and the specifics of the targeted use of funds.We note that the tariff is a monetary expression of the cost of a regulated service, formed on the basis of economically reasonable costs, and is used exclusively for tariff regulation purposes. At the same time, the tariff estimate cannot be considered as a basis for determining tax obligations.At the same time, if deviations are detected between the indicators provided for in the tariff estimate and the actual costs incurred, such facts are subject to reflection and analysis in accordance with the established procedure.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-kostanay/press/news/details/1191283?lang=kk

Digitalization in public finance has long moved beyond mere technological updates. It is about a deep transformation of the entire management system: from revenue administration to expenditure control, reports Zakon.kz.Finance Minister Madi Takiyev spoke about how data is becoming the foundation of budget policy, why the very philosophy of management is changing, and what role artificial intelligence plays in this process.– Madi Tokeshevich, today digitalization has become a key topic for all government agencies. How is it changing the public finance system?  – Digitalization is changing not the tools, but the very philosophy of management. We are moving from a fragmented system, where each process existed separately, to a holistic model in which all elements are interconnected and work as a single organism. This applies to all levels of public finance: from tax administration to budget planning. For example, we have already reduced the number of information systems in the public revenue block from 14 to 5 and built a unified technological foundation, on the basis of which key solutions are being developed, such as the Integrated Tax Administration System (ISNA), Smart Data Finance, and Keden. Previously, financial management was largely reactive: an event would occur first, then we would analyze it, and only then make decisions. Today, thanks to digital solutions, it is possible to see the picture in advance: forecast revenues, assess risks, understand where imbalances may arise. This is essentially a transition from accounting to management. And in this, we see the main significance of digitalization for public finances. – Can we already talk about specific results of this transformation? – Yes, and it is important that these results are not only quantitative but also qualitative. On the one hand, we see growth in the revenue base, and it is largely driven by increased administration efficiency. But no less important is that the very structure of the system has changed. For instance, ISNA today serves 2.2 million taxpayers, over 136 thousand people use the system daily, and the processing time for key operations has been reduced multiple times: closing the operational day – from 18 to 3 hours, processing payments – from 15 to 3 minutes, documents – from 1 hour to 1 minute. Such changes are not just an acceleration of processes, but a completely different level of manageability. Furthermore, we are actively developing Smart Data Finance – a big data platform that already accumulates information from 78 sources and forms a comprehensive digital dossier for each taxpayer. But perhaps our main result is trust in the system. When processes are transparent and logical, it creates a completely different attitude from business and society. – How deeply are data and analytics used today?  – Today, data is the foundation of the entire system. We no longer work with individual indicators but see the complete picture. Through Smart Data Finance, a so-called digital profile is formed, which includes information on real estate, transport, transactions, employment contracts, financial operations, and other parameters. This allows us to see not only individual operations but also the interconnections and behavior of economic participants. This fundamentally changes the approach to administration. Control becomes targeted and justified. We intervene less where there are no risks and focus attention on truly problematic areas. Simultaneously, we are implementing elements of artificial intelligence in budget revenue forecasting, risk management, and transaction analysis. This is the next step, which will allow a transition to even more precise and proactive management. – How has digitalization affected the fight against the shadow economy?  – The effect here is indeed tangible. Today, key tools are electronic invoices and big data analytics. The full transition to E-invoices has made it possible to identify fictitious transactions automatically. According to system data, over 10 thousand taxpayers were identified with signs of fictitious transactions amounting to about 8.5 trillion tenge, with over 3 thousand of them already having revoked invoices worth 822 billion tenge.It is important that the system operates without human involvement: it itself records anomalies and restricts further operations if risks are present. This makes control more objective and reduces the scope for abuse. As a result, the environment itself changes: it becomes less profitable to operate "in the shadows" and, conversely, more comfortable in the legal field.  – And what is happening with the expenditure side of the budget?  – Here, we are also consistently implementing digital approaches. If previously planning largely relied on average indicators, today we use real data: receipts, invoices, procurement statistics. Integration with the National Product Catalog plays a key role here. Today, the system already contains over 15 million product items, and data on over 400 million receipts are transmitted through integrations with cash registers and other systems. Additionally, the Price Database is operational, having already processed over 150 million cash receipts and accumulating information on 650 thousand product items.Preventive control has become an important element. We do not just check expenses after they are made, but analyze them even at the planning stage. This allows us to identify unjustified expenses before they enter the budget. www.zakon.kzSource : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kvga/press/news/details/1191213?lang=kk

The city is continuing to modernize its public transport system. Every day, 187 buses operate on urban and suburban routes. Over the past five years, the bus fleet has been significantly обновлен, and currently 151 buses (81%) are less than 7 years old. This has substantially improved the quality and reliability of passenger transportation.As part of a working visit, the city administration visited the enterprise Altair Production Cooperative. The carrier operates routes No. 5, 11, 12, and 38. The company has 40 buses, and starting tomorrow, an additional 12 new vehicles will be deployed on the routes. Thus, the enterprise has become one of the first to fully renew its fleet.These results have been achieved благодаря government support measures and subsidy mechanisms, which enable systematic renewal of public transport and improve passenger comfort.In addition, starting from June 1, two new routes will be launched. They will connect key social and infrastructure facilities, including the regional hospital, Polyclinic No. 1, the triathlon park, boxing school, football academy, and the industrial zone. The new routes are expected to enhance convenience for residents and visitors of the city.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kostanai-kalasy-akimat/press/news/details/1191227?lang=kk

An online information meeting was held on the ZOOM platform for participants in foreign economic activity. The speaker of the event was the head of the Customs Administration Department, Tlekes Tusetaev. The main topics on the agenda were the protection of intellectual property and the introduction of navigation seals.As part of the first topic, participants were reminded of measures to combat counterfeiting and "gray" imports. The key instrument here is the Customs Register of Intellectual Property Objects (TROIS). If, when declaring a product, it is suspected of copyright infringement, its release is suspended for 10 working days until the circumstances are clarified. This measure works effectively in practice: in 2025, the release of goods on 14 declarations totaling 242.7 thousand US dollars was suspended.Special attention was paid at the webinar to an important innovation on the territory of the EAEU. Starting from February 11, 2026, a cargo tracking system using navigation seals will be phased in. The rules will apply to goods transported by road and rail. The Institute of Space Engineering and Technology LLP has been appointed the national operator of the system in Kazakhstan.What does the use of navigation seals give a business?- Minimization of customs inspections and excessive checks at the border.- Guaranteed protection of the cargo from unauthorized opening along the entire route.- Convenient management of the process through an online account, including a single payment for services in all countries of the Union.Regular explanatory meetings help businesses to learn about changes in legislation in a timely manner, minimize risks and build their work as transparently as possible.Department of Explanatory Work and Contact CenterState Duma of the Pavlodar regionSource : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-pavlodar/press/news/details/1191170?lang=kk

The deposit from the LLP is in a simplified mode: do I need to submit the 100.00 form and pay the CPNThe Department of State Revenue for Kostanay region explains. Limited liability partnerships (LLP) that apply a special tax regime based on a simplified declaration often place free funds on deposits with banks. In this regard, the question arises: is it necessary to reflect the income on the deposit and pay corporate income tax (CIT)?According to the provisions of Article 681 of the Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan, income in the form of interest on deposits does not relate to income taxed under a special tax regime. This means that such income is subject to taxation in a generally prescribed manner.Thus, an LLP that has received income on a deposit is required to submit a declaration on the form 100.00 based on the results of the reporting year and reflect the amount of remuneration received as part of its total annual income. The specified income is included in line 100.00.014 as the taxpayer's other income.The income on the deposit is subject to corporate income tax at a rate of 20 percent. At the same time, the bank paying the remuneration acts as a tax agent and withholds tax at the source of payment at a rate of 15 percent in accordance with tax legislation.In accordance with Article 302 of the Tax Code, the amount of CIT payable to the budget is reduced by the amount of tax withheld at the source of payment. In other words, the taxpayer has the right to set off the tax withheld by the bank when calculating his tax obligations.For example, if the amount of interest on the deposit was 100,000 tenge, then the total CPI at the rate of 20 percent will be 20,000 tenge. At the same time, the bank will retain 15 percent, or 15,000 tenge. As a result, a difference of 5,000 tenge will remain for the additional payment to the budget.It should be noted that the correct reflection of income on deposits and timely reporting make it possible to avoid tax risks and ensure compliance with legal requirements.Thus, if there is a deposit income, an LLP applying the simplified regime is required to report on form 100.00 and pay corporate income tax, taking into account the tax deducted by the bank.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kgd-kostanay/press/news/details/1191040?lang=kk

В Актобе прошел круглый стол, посвященный реализации норм нового Налогового кодекса. На площадке встретились депутаты Сената, представители акимата Актюбинской области, Комитета государственных доходов МФ, НПП «Атамекен» и предприниматели региона.Первый вице-министр национальной экономики Азамат Амрин, выступая на круглом столе, подчеркнул, что ключевая задача Налогового кодекса - не просто изменить цифры в законе, а выстроить работающие механизмы, исключающие давление на бизнес.«Для оперативной настройки реформы был создан Проектный офис, ставший штабом быстрого реагирования: уже проведено 10 заседаний, решены 64 конкретных кейса бизнеса, устранены риски при запуске ИСНА и развернута инфраструктура поддержки - от консультационной сети и call-центра до цифровых помощников, включая SalykBot», - сообщил Азамат Амрин в ходе круглого стола.В ходе диалога был озвучен пакет точечных поправок, которые уже вступили в силу или готовятся к внесению в Налоговый кодекс. В частности, уже снята неопределенность по НДС на импорт медикаментов, а предельные цены на лекарства теперь устанавливаются без учета налога. Особое внимание уделено социальной справедливости: для лиц с инвалидностью внедряется принцип «поглощения», закрепляющий максимальный налоговый вычет вне зависимости от смены группы в течение года. Кроме того, экспортеры энергетиков будут освобождены от акцизов, а доходы от НДПИ на общераспространенные ископаемые теперь будут направляться напрямую в региональные бюджеты по месту добычи.Отдельно Азамат Амрин остановился на итогах переходного периода, который официально завершился 1 марта 2026 года.
