As noted by Bakyt Dzhienbekov, Deputy Chairman of the State Tax Service, previously, a significant portion of audits were conducted manually: inspectors compared information from different databases, which led to excessive visits to businesses and preserved the influence of the human factor.
“It was important for us to find a technological solution that would minimize the human factor and reduce pressure on businesses,” he emphasized.
The system combines data from customs, electronic invoices, consignment notes, and other government resources. Now, audits should be initiated not according to a formal schedule, but when specific discrepancies are identified.
According to Shamshybek Kachkynbay uulu, director of the Salyk Service, the platform automatically compares indicators and alerts the inspector only when anomalies are found.
“The system itself ‘tells’ us where there are discrepancies, and that's where we need to look,” he explained.
The tax authorities emphasize that Salyk Kuzot does not make decisions or impose fines. It generates analytical prompts, and the inspector then assesses the situation.
At the same time, the system monitors not only businesses but also the actions of inspectors — if interference is not confirmed by data, this is also recorded.
Bek Mamadaliev, head of the analytical work department of the State Tax Service, noted that tax administration should shift from punishment to prevention.
The introduction of the system is expected to reduce the number of on-site inspections and decrease direct interaction between entrepreneurs and inspectors.
In fact, tax control will be based on the principle of risk analysis: not everyone will be inspected, but only those whose operations raise reasonable questions.
