Available Kazakhstan Payroll Options

  • Remote payroll – This option allows businesses to operate under a single payroll system, by adding employees in Kazakhstan to your parent company’s payroll. However, these employees must operate under different regulations, which is likely to cause problems.
  • Internal payroll – You may operate payroll for your subsidiary, especially if you are committed to growing your company’s presence in Kazakhstan. However, this does require hiring dedicated HR staff who understand Kazakhstan employment and compliance laws.
  • Kazakhstan’ payroll processing company – If you are considering outsourcing, then working with a Kazakhstan payroll company will help in processing your payroll – but not when it comes to compliance.
  • Kazakhstan’ payroll outsourcing – However, there is another option available that solves both concerns – by working with Bradford Jacobs. We can handle payroll and compliance for all your employees in Kazakhstan. We take the administrative stress off your shoulders so you can focus on what you do best.

Foreign companies intending to operate in Kazakhstan must establish a subsidiary to legally recruit and run payroll for their staff. The typical choice is to establish a limited liability partnership (LLP), which generally protects the parent company, its shareholders and members from liability as it is an independent legal entity. Company registration is through the Public Service Centre and the company operates under the Civil Code, the Private Entrepreneurship Law and the Law on Partnerships with Limited or Additional Liabilities. In some sectors, subsidiaries must be established as joint stock companies.

Regulations applying to employing foreigners are extensive, with the first step being to establish which of four categories of foreign workers applies. Under Article 519 of the Labour Code, substantial fines apply for failure to comply. Details can be found at the government site: https://egov.kz/cms/en/articles/job_search/inostrannyi_trud

Once the company is incorporated, employers must onboard their new staff and be ready to stay in line with every aspect of the Labour Code. In general, procedures include:

  • Obtain or verify the individual’s electronic digital signature (EDS) from the National Certification Authority (NCA)
  • Obtain or verify the employee’s 12-digit Individual Identification Number (IIN)
  • Register employee for taxation with the State Revenue Committee (SRC) of the Ministry of Finance and with the Social Security Administration (SSA)
