The Kazakhstani Ministry of National Economy has introduced a legislative proposal aimed at modifying the criteria for travel bans imposed on business owners and corporate leaders due to outstanding tax debts. Under existing regulations, individuals such as company directors, heads of structural units, private practitioners, and sole proprietors face potential exit restrictions if their tax arrears surpass 27,000 Monthly Calculation Indices, which equates to 116.7 million tenge for the year 2026. This threshold was previously set by the Ministry of Finance. The proposed amendments, currently available for public review on the Open NPA portal, seek to adjust how these debt amounts are calculated and applied to prevent international travel. These changes represent an effort to refine the enforcement mechanisms regarding tax compliance for the business community in Kazakhstan.
