Jurisdiction overview: Kazakhstan
Kazakhstan is a promising jurisdiction for company registration with access to the CIS, European, and Asian markets. Company registration in Kazakhstan is available to foreign founders, including 100% foreign ownership, while moderate taxation and a favorable business climate make the country an efficient regional entry point.
A special role is played by the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC) — a separate legal regime based on English common law, featuring its own commercial regulations, a developed financial market, and extended tax incentives valid until 2066 for participants providing certain financial and related services.
The standard corporate income tax (CIT) rate in Kazakhstan is 20%. At the same time, small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs) may benefit from simplified tax regimes with reduced turnover tax rates, as well as special tax preferences for priority industries.
Kazakhstan has concluded double taxation treaties with more than 50 countries, enabling efficient structuring of international holding and operating companies. A well-developed digital government infrastructure (online company registration, electronic filing of reports) and access to a skilled workforce make Kazakhstan attractive for IT projects, logistics, trade, agriculture, and financial services.

Who can be a founder:
- Any individual or legal entity, including non-residents.
- One or multiple shareholders are allowed; 100% foreign ownership is permitted.
- Minimum one director (may be a foreign national; no strict residency requirement, however, in practice banks and authorities often prefer a resident director).
- Registered legal address in Kazakhstan (office/address is included in the registration package).
- Share capital: may be declared from KZT 100; the practical recommended amount depends on business activity and bank requirements for account opening.
- KYC/AML procedures: passport copies and address confirmation of beneficial owners, corporate documents of foreign shareholders, source of funds disclosure, and business model description.

Corporate Income Tax (CIT): standard rate – 20% on taxable profit. Reduced rates may apply for companies operating in special economic zones or under preferential regimes.
SME tax regimes: small businesses may apply simplified turnover-based taxation (2–4%, depending on the regime), significantly reducing the tax burden for startups and local service companies.
VAT: standard VAT rate – 12%. Mandatory VAT registration applies once the statutory turnover threshold is exceeded. Exports are generally subject to 0% VAT, provided compliance requirements are met.
Payroll taxes: employers pay social tax, pension contributions, and mandatory health insurance contributions for employees.
AIFC tax incentives: AIFC participants providing qualifying financial and related services are exempt from CIT and VAT on such income until 1 January 2066, as well as from property and land taxes within the AIFC. Dividends, interest, and capital gains on qualifying securities and shares are also tax-exempt.
