Is a transfer exceeding 255,000 tenge subject to scrutiny by tax authorities?

During a government briefing, when asked whether a transfer of 300,000 tenge would trigger an audit of Kazakhstani citizens by fiscal authorities, Dina Kussainova, head of the Individual Income Administration at the Financial Ministry’s State Revenue Committee, responded, as reported by Bizmedia.kz.

In response to the question posed, Dina Kussainova reminded that a single transfer is not subject to verification. Transfers from 100 different individuals exceeding 255,000 tenge will be monitored over a three-month period. Banks are required to send this information to the Committee for State Revenues (KGD) regarding individuals, legal entities, and their family members.

This measure has been implemented to identify individuals engaged in entrepreneurial activities without registration with tax authorities and receiving monetary rewards through mobile transactions.
