Important story: Shymkent police chief meets with students 25.02.2026
At South Kazakhstan University, the head of the city police department, Mukhtar Kozhaev, held a meeting with about 500 students and established an open and meaningful dialogue. At the meeting, the general not only gave an official speech to the youth, but also discussed *real issues of concern to society*. In particular, the topic was stalking, kidnapping, "dropper" schemes in Internet fraud, drug distribution, the use of vaping and "laughing gas", the culture of wearing masks in public places, and scooter riding. The police officer noted that *stalking* is considered a crime by law, and insisted that *kidnapping* is not a tradition, but a violation of human rights. The police chief also touched upon the issue of fraud committed via the Internet and urged young people not to be fooled by offers of *"easy money". He explained that *giving a bank card to a stranger* is tantamount to complicity in a crime. In addition, he warned that *being a drug dealer* also leads to serious criminal liability. During the meeting, special videos were shown and legal requirements were explained using specific examples. Students asked their questions and openly exchanged views. *– The security of society depends on the responsibility of every citizen. You are the future of the country. We believe in you and are always ready to support you,* – said Mukhtar Kozhaev. The meeting became a meaningful platform for young people to think.

Meeting with bloggers and media representatives 25.02.2026
The Department of State Revenues in the Akmola region held a meeting with bloggers and media representatives on changes in the tax code of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The head of the Department of Explanatory Work and Contact of the Center Shynar Musina made a report "On Amendments to the Tax Code of 2026." One of the key innovations is the introduction of a progressive scale of individual income tax. Incomes of individuals up to 8,500 times the monthly calculation indicator per year (approximately 33.4 million tenge) will be taxed at a rate of 10%, and incomes in excess of this amount - at a rate of 15%. This change is aimed at increasing tax fairness and reducing the burden on low-income citizens.In addition, tax deductions have been revised: the standard non-taxable minimum has been increased from 14 to 30 MCI per month, which will completely exempt workers with a salary of up to 140 thousand tenge from PPI. For socially vulnerable segments of the population, in particular disabled people of groups I and II, the deduction has been increased to 5,000 MCI per month.In addition, the system of tax deductions is simplified: instead of providing supporting documents for training, treatment or mortgage - now there is a fixed standard deduction. Pension and lump sum payments are exempt.Particular attention in the new code is paid to the collection of tax debt. The concept of the maximum amount of debt is introduced - 20 MCI. If the debt does not exceed this threshold, only the accrual of penalties and notification will apply. If exceeded, account blocking, collection orders will follow, and if the debt is over 45 MCI, the property will be seized.In case of non-payment of debts over 27,000 MCI for more than three months, the court may restrict the debtor from leaving the country. At the same time, the tax authorities are obliged to first send notifications and warn the taxpayer about the occurrence of debt.Another significant innovation is the launch of an integrated tax administration system that will replace seven existing IT systems and significantly simplify tax administration, speed up procedures, automate processes and increase the transparency of interaction between the taxpayer and the state. From January 1, 2026, instead of the seven previously existing options, there are three universal special tax regimes (SAR):SNR for the self-employedSAR based on simplified declarationSNR for peasant farms (peasant farms)If the conditions are met and the desire to apply the SNR on the basis of a simplified declaration by March 1, 2026, payers must send a notice of the applicable tax regime with a mark in the 2nd section "on the transition to" and the date of application of such SNR will be January 1, 2026.For micro and small businesses, the procedure for writing off penalties and fines was approved, said the head of the legal department Bulat Abetov. The Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan approved the Rules that allow micro and small businesses to write off penalties and fines, subject to the repayment of the principal amount of tax debt. This measure was taken in order to reduce the financial burden on entrepreneurs and make it possible to settle debts without additional sanctions. If the entrepreneur fully repays the amount of arrears (the main tax debt), which was listed on January 1, 2026, in the period from January 1 to March 31, 2026, then: - all accrued penalties (including penalties accrued before the day of full payment) will be written off; - fines will be written off for those taxes and mandatory payments for which the debt has been repaid; - penalties for turnovers committed before January 1, 2026 during the period of non-registration with VAT (in the absence of enforcement measures as of January 1, 2026) can also be written off. To take advantage of this opportunity, you must pay the principal in full by March 31, 2026. This is an opportunity for businesses to settle debts and start working further without accumulated fines and penalties.The head of the excise administration department Yerzhan Shulembekov said that from February 1, 2026, a phased introduction of digital labeling of beer and beer drinks begins in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Labeling is introduced sequentially and in stages so that all market participants can prepare in advance and build work in the new conditions:from February 1, 2026 - beer labeling in kegs and bottles;from January 1, 2027 - beer labeling in cans;from January 1, 2027 - the transition to a full traceability regime along the entire chain of goods turnover. Please note that only products manufactured since February 1, 2026 are subject to labeling. Brewing products produced before this date can be sold for one year without hindrance. Beer producers, importers and retailers are connected to the labeling system through a single digital service. Registration is available at the industrial stand at the link:https://tanba.markirovka.kz/ In the retail sale of labeled beer or beer drink, the withdrawal of goods from circulation is carried out automatically on the basis of information received from the operator of fiscal data. For this, a cash register is used, already used in the daily work of retail outlets. When selling beer for bottling (in kegs), withdrawal from circulation is made on the basis of the first information from the CRF and is carried out in relation to the entire kegs. In order to support entrepreneurs and improve the quality of accounting and tax accounting, the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan is holding an action "People's Accountant." The promotion is held from January 5, 2026 and will last until June 30, 2026. "People's Accountant" is a free advisory assistance for individual entrepreneurs and small businesses. Work schedule in the first months of January-February 2026 consultations 3 times a week (Monday, Wednesday, Friday) from 10:00 to 13:00. Since March 2026, consultations 2 times a week. In Akmola region, the action is held at the State Revenue Department in Kokshetau at Kokshetau pr. Nazarbayeva 21A.

Measles is an extremely contagious viral disease that is transmitted through airborne droplets. 25.02.2026
Measles is an extremely contagious viral disease that is transmitted through airborne droplets. The virus is so volatile that it can remain in the air for up to 2 hours after the patient has left the room. Key facts:• Symptoms: The disease begins as an acute respiratory infection, characterized by a high fever (up to 38.5-40°C), dry cough, runny nose, and conjunctivitis (red, watery eyes).• Rash: Appears on days 3-5. It occurs in stages: first on the face and behind the ears, then on the torso, and finally on the arms and legs.• Danger: Severe complications such as pneumonia, brain damage (encephalitis), blindness, and deafness are possible.• Prevention: Vaccination is the only reliable way to protect yourself. Vaccinations are scheduled at 12 months and 6 years of age.In 2025-2026, many countries, including the United States, Europe, and Kazakhstan, have experienced outbreaks due to a decrease in herd immunity. Currently, there are no reported cases of measles in our area. This presents an important opportunity for vaccination. It is crucial to build strong immunity in children during this period of epidemiological stability, rather than waiting for an outbreak to occur. Remember that it takes time for the body to develop effective protection after vaccination.According to the decree of the Chief State Sanitary Doctor of the Republic of Kazakhstan No. 3 dated February 19, 2026, additional mass immunization against measles, rubella, and mumps has been launched:children aged 6 months to 10 months and 29 days beforethe stabilization of the epidemiological situation on measles,2. children aged 2 to 5 yearsunvaccinated in accordance with the National Immunization Schedule of the Republic of Kazakhstan,3. children aged 7 to 18 yearsunvaccinated in accordance with the National Immunization Schedule,4. medical workers and employees of healthcare organizations under the age of 30 who are not vaccinated, do not have vaccination data, and have not been vaccinated during previous additional mass immunizations against this infection.To receive preventive vaccinations against measles, rubella, and mumps, you should contact the Mendykara District Hospital or the local medical center. Vaccination is performed after obtaining the informed consent of the parent (legal representative).Vaccination is not just a medical procedure, but the only way to guarantee the protection of your child from the severe consequences of measles. Your decision today will ensure the health and safety of your child tomorrow.RSE "Mendykaryn District Department of Sanitary and Epidemiological Control of the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Kazakhstan"Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kostanai-mendykarin-audany-akimat/press/news/details/1167139?lang=kk
