The history of independent Kazakhstan began with an important event that marked a turning point on the path to statehood.
On October 25, 1990, the Supreme Council of the Kazakh SSR adopted the Declaration of State Sovereignty. This historic document established the principle of the supremacy of republican authority within the territory of Kazakhstan and laid the legal foundation for the further development of an independent state.
In 1995, October 25 was first granted the status of a national holiday, and in 2001, Republic Day was designated as a state holiday.
In June 2022, at a meeting of the National Kurultai, President of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kassym-Jomart Tokayev proposed restoring Republic Day’s status as a national holiday. In the same year, the holiday once again took a special place in the country’s calendar.
At an expanded meeting of the Board of the Astana City Department of State Revenue, the results of its activities for the first nine months of 2026 and the achievement of key performance indicators were reviewed. Priority tasks for the second half of the current year were also identified.
Opening the meeting, Serik Manzorov, Head of the Department, noted that ensuring the stable execution of the budget’s revenue side, improving the efficiency of tax administration, and enhancing the service-oriented model of interaction with taxpayers remain key priorities for the state revenue authorities.
According to the Department, revenues to the national budget totalled KZT 2 trillion 760.7 billion in the first nine months of 2026. This represented 100.8% of the planned target Compared with the same period last year, revenue increased by KZT 667.2 billion
The highest growth in revenue was driven by the following types of taxes:
Value Added Tax (VAT) on goods, works and services sold within the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan KZT 355.2 billion
associations in the oil sector
Bankruptcy is the insolvency of a debtor recognized by a court decision and serving as grounds for its liquidation.
A debtor is a legal entity whose insolvency constitutes grounds for applying the procedures provided for under the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan “On Rehabilitation and Bankruptcy.”
The bankruptcy of a legal entity is established:
Voluntarily on the basis of an application filed by the debtor with the court;
Compulsorily on the basis of an application filed with the court by creditors or other persons authorized under the Law.
The grounds for a creditor to apply to the court for a declaration of bankruptcy or for the application of rehabilitation proceedings against a debtor are the debtor’s insolvency.
The grounds for a debtor to apply to the court for a declaration of its own bankruptcy are its insolvency and the absence of any possibility of restoring its solvency.
Before being declared bankrupt, a debtor may be subject to rehabilitation proceedings, including an accelerated rehabilitation procedure based on a rehabilitation plan agreed upon with creditors out of court.
The bankruptcy procedure is administered by a bankruptcy administrator appointed by the authorized body responsible for rehabilitation and bankruptcy.
Creditors’ claims, including claims relating to mandatory payments to the state budget, are satisfied in the order of priority established by law.
October 25 is an important date in the history of our country, symbolizing statehood, unity, and the aspiration for prosperity.
On the eve of Republic Day, we pay tribute to the history of Kazakhstan, our national values, our achievements, and the people whose hard work contributes to the development of our homeland.
May our country continue to prosper, strengthen its unity, and confidently move forward toward new achievements!
