From 23 January 2026 the activity of Astana Hub participants is governed by new Rules approved by Order No. 703/НҚ of 31 December 2025, and since July 2026 by an amended version of those Rules. The Rules replaced a 2018 order that had stood for seven years and introduced two genuinely new duties: an annual report on the structure of income, the data in which is confirmed by an auditor, and counter-obligations to develop the IT ecosystem. At the same time the tax reliefs moved into a new Tax Code — Code No. 214-VIII of 18 July 2025, in force from 1 January 2026.
