Subsoil users will no longer be able to hide goods  in works and services

The Ministry of Industry and Construction of the Republic of Kazakhstan has adopted amendments to the Rules for the purchase by subsoil users and their contractors of goods, works and services used in operations for the extraction of solid minerals.

These Rules allow domestic producers to supply their products to subsurface users, which were previously hidden in works and services, and could be purchased from imported suppliers.

Thus, the Rules oblige subsurface users to withdraw all goods from works/services and consider applications from domestic manufacturers, taking into account the cost of the goods.

At the same time, the exception is goods purchased under warranty and service agreements for equipment (machinery) or providing environmental and individual protection in harmful and dangerous areas of production.

This order was registered on April 24, 2024 No. 154 (registered with the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Kazakhstan on April 25, 2024 No. 34300).
