Kazakhstan's KGD explains why some account spending was suspended after checks

Kazakhstan's State Revenue Committee (KGD) has explained why spending operations on some Kazakhstani accounts were suspended after desk audits. According to a statement cited by NUR.KZ, the suspensions do not result from the audit itself, but from taxpayers failing to respond to a notice.

The KGD said desk audits are currently based on data from second-tier banks, including POS-terminal receipts, and on mobile transfers. If this data does not match tax reporting, a notice is sent to the taxpayer. Notices were sent in September. Taxpayers have 30 working days (45 calendar days) from the date the notice is delivered to their personal cabinet to reply. If they do not respond, spending operations on their accounts are suspended.

To comply, taxpayers can submit additional tax reporting and pay taxes, or provide an explanation of the discrepancies. Once a taxpayer responds, the suspension is lifted and the accounts work again. The notice can be checked and answered in the taxpayer's personal cabinet.
