State Revenue Committee

What State Revenue Committee does

The State Revenue Committee of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan is a government state entity responsible for tax and customs administration across the Republic of Kazakhstan. Established in 2014, the committee consolidates state revenue collection functions including corporate income tax, individual income tax, VAT, property tax, excise duties, and customs clearance for foreign economic activity. It operates as the sole statutory authority for tax and customs administration in Kazakhstan, serving every legal entity and citizen engaged in taxable activity through a network of 20 regional territorial departments, an integrated call center (1414, 8-800-080-7777), the e-government portal, and the E-salyq-Azamat mobile application.

The committee's technology portfolio centers on government tax and customs administration information systems, including the ASTANA-1 customs clearance platform for foreign economic activity participants and authorized economic operators, the electronic invoice system (ЭШФ АЖ) with an API interface and virtual warehouse module, the excise information system (Акциздер АЖ), and the automated remote service system (СЕӨС АЖ). Additional platforms include the IS SPTR information system for subsoil use legislative regulation, a taxpayer risk management system using tax burden coefficients, and a horizontal monitoring pilot for cooperative tax compliance. These systems integrate with Kazakhstan's national e-government infrastructure to deliver taxpayer services, tax calculations, and compliance monitoring. The committee maintains four subordinate organizations: TOO Nur Zholy Customs Service, the Central Customs Laboratory, the Kynological Center, and the Training Center (Оқу-әдістемелік орталық).

As a government agency rather than a commercial enterprise, the committee does not sell products or services or operate under a commercial revenue model. Its activities are funded through the state budget and it does not have disclosed revenue figures, pricing models, or commercial financial metrics. International cooperation frameworks include partnerships with the OECD (tax policy, transfer pricing, BEPS), the World Bank (public procurement transparency), the Eurasian Economic Union (customs harmonization), and the WTO (trade facilitation standards). The entity is headquartered at Zheltoksan Street 11, 010000, Astana, and is headed by Chairman Zhandos Duisembiev (Дүйсембиев Жандос Жумабаевич).

Broad incumbents

• Servicio de Administración Tributaria (SAT) - Mexico: SAT is Mexico's national tax administration with a comprehensive portfolio of digital taxpayer services, electronic invoicing (CFDI), and customs integration. It is a global benchmark for mandatory electronic invoicing, similar to the SRC's ESHF system.
• Internal Revenue Service (IRS): The U.S. IRS is the largest national tax administration in the world and a global benchmark for risk-based compliance, electronic filing, and taxpayer service modernization. The SRC's digital roadmap aligns with IRS-style self-service and pre-filled return approaches.
• HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC): HMRC is the UK's national tax and customs authority and a recognized OECD/BEPS leader. It provides a benchmark for digital tax administration, Making Tax Digital, and customs digitization that the SRC explicitly references in its modernization strategy.
• Canada Revenue Agency (CRA): The CRA operates a unified national tax and customs-adjacent authority with extensive digital services, horizontal monitoring, and OECD-aligned practices. Comparable to the SRC in scope and in the trajectory of digital transformation.
• Australian Taxation Office (ATO): The ATO is widely recognized as a leader in digital tax administration, data analytics, and just-in-time compliance. Its operating model and digital capabilities are a frequent reference point for post-Soviet tax authorities pursuing modernization.

Others

• World Bank Group Tax Administration Diagnostics: The World Bank's tax administration diagnostic and reform programs are an active partner of the SRC, providing benchmarks, tooling, and capacity-building. Rather than a competitor, it functions as an enabler and reference framework for the SRC's modernization.

Regional players

• Federal Tax Service of Russia (FTS): The Russian Federal Tax Service is the national tax administration authority operating in a neighboring EAEU member state. Both the SRC and FTS operate unified tax/customs digital services, universal declarations, and risk-based monitoring, making FTS a structurally comparable regional peer.
• State Tax Committee of the Republic of Uzbekistan: The Uzbek State Tax Committee is a fellow Central Asian national tax authority that has undergone parallel consolidation of tax and customs functions. Both operate under unified ministry-of-finance oversight and run regional territorial departments with digital taxpayer services.
• State Tax Service of Ukraine: The State Tax Service of Ukraine is a national tax administration with a similar post-Soviet reform trajectory, including taxpayer e-cabinets, electronic VAT administration, and risk-based audits. Its mandate and digital transformation approach are closely comparable to the SRC.

Emerging players

• Federal Tax Authority of the United Arab Emirates: The UAE Federal Tax Authority is a relatively new national tax body administering VAT, excise, and corporate tax with a heavy digital-first design. It is comparable to the SRC as a modernizing tax authority focused on indirect tax administration and electronic invoicing.
