To the attention of business entities!

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, we bring the following to the attention of business entities.

Increasingly, the Ministry receives oral complaints from citizens about the language of operations carried out by cash registers (hereinafter referred to as cash registers), because the receipt issued through cash registers at all retail outlets, banks, airports and public places (canteen, cafe, restaurant, pharmacy, theater, cinema, etc.) is printed out only in Russian.

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, judicial proceedings and office work, used in all spheres 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 his 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 Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On Taxes and Other Mandatory Payments to the Budget" (Tax Code), the authorized body maintains the state register by including (excluding) models of cash registers in the state register (register).

The procedure for including (excluding) 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.

Thus, the information printed and displayed by the CMC in accordance with the technical requirements of the CMC, 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.
