- Kazakhstan will keep full VAT refunds for exporters of agricultural products, canceling the planned 80% VAT credit reduction.
- Refund eligibility will be verified through tax audits using a “pyramid method” to trace the goods and tax payments from producer to exporter.
- If approved in the Tax Code amendments, the change will apply retroactively from the date the new code takes effect.
- Authorities are also developing a voluntary digital tenge mechanism to speed up VAT refunds, especially for exporters.
- The move is meant to support farmers, preserve export competitiveness, and provide more predictable conditions for businesses.
