In accordance with the appeal of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Republic of Kazakhstan to the state revenue authorities regarding the expansion of the scope of the state language, the State Revenue Office in the Beimbet Mailina district brings the following to the attention of business entities.
Increasingly, the Ministry receives verbal complaints from citizens about the language of operations performed by means of cash registers (hereinafter referred to as CCM), because the receipt issued through CCM in all retail outlets, banks, airports and public places (canteen, cafe, restaurant, pharmacy, theatre, cinema, etc.) is printed in Russian only.
In accordance with Article 4 of the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan “On Languages in the Republic of Kazakhstan” (hereinafter referred to as the Law), the state language is the language of public administration, legislation, legal proceedings and office work, used in all areas of public relations throughout the state.
Also, in accordance with Article 6 of the Law, every citizen of the Republic of Kazakhstan has the right to use their native language, free choice of the language of communication, education, training and creativity, that is, any citizen has the right to demand the provision of services in the state language.
In accordance with Article 170 of the Tax Code, the authorized body maintains the state register by including (excluding) models of cash registers in the state register (register). The procedure for inclusion (exclusion) of models of cash registers in the state register (register) is determined by the authorized body.
Cash registers included in the state register are tested for compliance with the technical requirements defined by the order of the Minister of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated February 16, 2018 No. 208 “On some issues of the use of cash registers”. In addition, the replacement of the state language is provided for by technical requirements.
So, the information printed and displayed by the KKM in accordance with the technical requirements of the KKM, the designations on the keyboard and the registration of information must be in the state or Russian languages. All KKM models included in the state register meet the technical requirements and perform the function of translation into the state language.
Based on the foregoing, in order to prevent and prevent violations, we ask entrepreneurs to carry out activities in accordance with the above norms of the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan and, at the request of citizens, provide a service for issuing a KKM check in the state language.
