Kazakhstan continues to strengthen its position as one of the region’s most attractive investment destinations. Over the first four months of this year, investment in fixed capital increased by 7%, reaching nearly five trillion tenge. Overall, more than $20 billion in foreign direct investment was attracted into the country’s economy last year. The resilience of the economy and the confidence of foreign partners are also confirmed by international rating agencies. According to the Ministry of National Economy, they affirm Kazakhstan’s sovereign rating at an investment-grade level. The ministry notes that investors are provided with state support measures, including tax and customs incentives, a green corridor mechanism for project support, and guarantees of legislative stability. Additional opportunities for businesses are created through special economic and industrial zones, which provide companies with ready-made infrastructure and preferential operating conditions.
«One of the key instruments for supporting large-scale projects is the Investment Agreement. This mechanism allows investors implementing projects worth at least 7.5 million monthly calculation indices to receive a package of state support measures, along with guarantees of legislative stability for up to 25 years. In 2025, a total of 30 such agreements were concluded, while 12 have been signed so far this year. An additional mechanism is the Investment Commitment Agreement, which guarantees tax legislative stability for up to 10 years for major domestic manufacturers undertaking large-scale projects to establish or modernize production facilities,» noted Kazakh Vice Minister of National Economy Arman Kassenov.
Moreover,
to strengthen the protection of investors’ rights, a special platform for the
pre-trial settlement of disputes will be established under the Prosecutor
General’s Office. Investment prosecutors will also be appointed in every region
to provide legal assistance to investors and support for investment projects.
