New Tax Code: new control tools and increased transparency of the tax system
On September 10, 2025, in the West Kazakhstan region, as part of the republican explanatory campaign of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan, a seminar was held in the city of Uralsk to explain the norms of the new Tax Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
The seminar was attended by representatives of the State Revenue Committee, the National Chamber of Entrepreneurs "Atameken", business, the accounting community and public organizations. The main focus was on changes in tax legislation, including simplification of tax administration and taxation in the agricultural sector.
The West Kazakhstan region is an industrial and agricultural region with an active development of the oil and gas industry, agriculture, and cross-border trade. Therefore, it was especially important for the seminar participants to learn about new approaches in concepts and terminology, the introduction of differentiated rates for CPN and VAT, a progressive scale for IPN, VAT reform and digitalization of processes, reduction of reporting forms and changes in special tax regimes.
Among the important changes announced were the preservation and expansion of tax benefits for agricultural producers, including reduced rates and additional deductions, and the transition to a simple and understandable system of special tax regimes — now there are only three of them, with minimal reporting.
The reform is aimed at simplifying tax administration and increasing the transparency of the tax system. One of the provisions is the transition to a service model of tax authorities, where the quality of interaction with taxpayers comes to the fore. It was noted that notifications and impact measures will be applied in stages, depending on the amount owed.
The participants actively asked questions related to the practical application of the new rules, the calculation of taxes at new rates, and the use of digital services.
The next, fifteenth, seminar in the framework of a series of clarifications of the norms of the tax code will be held on September 11, 2025 in Aktau.
