Licenses and Regulatory Permits

Sayat Zholshy & Partners is a master developer of the effective Kazakhstan Law On Permits and Notices, the most advanced legislative act in this domain which covers all issues related to the issuance of licenses and other permits by government authorities throughout Kazakhstan.  This work allowed us to exert a serious effect on the regulatory framework and ideology of the entire Kazakhstan licensing system.

Our Firm regularly renders legal assistance with the issuance and maintenance of government licenses, approvals, consents and notices.  We not only explain licensing regulations by means of advice, recommendations and legal opinions, but we also implement practical measures, help to compile checklists of required documents, and represent Clients in government authorities in connection with license issuance, renewal, extension or re-issuance and in the process of government audits.

The current Kazakhstan legislation provides for 84 licenses and 227 other permits.  Business regulation through licensing applies to nearly all corporations and individual entrepreneurs.  This sphere is of great importance to us and our Clients for the obvious reason – running business without an appropriate license or in violation of licensing regulations gives rise to administrative or criminal liability.  Moreover, proceeds from unlicensed business are confiscated in favour of the national budget.

Licensable activities may be carried out only under relevant licenses.  Our lawyers are always ready to assist Clients with prompt and legitimate acquisition of licenses and permits.  We can clarify all licensing regulations and requirements and we can help in preparing documents and materials required by government authorities.
