Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers Adylbek Kasymaliev signed a decree changing the operating rules in the Naryn SEZ. The changes concern the settlement procedures for enterprises engaged in virtual asset mining, data center operation, as well as software development and artificial intelligence technologies.
Conditions for the high-tech sector
A special payment mechanism is provided for companies in the AI and mining sectors. The key requirement is energy autonomy: such enterprises must either produce electricity independently or meet their needs through imports without connecting to the national power grid.
In this case, the payment amount will depend on the volume of energy consumed and will be calculated according to the tariff for commercial consumers with energy-intensive production. The payment schedule is distributed by years of operation:
Payment amount based on electricity cost
Rules for other participants
A standard rate is established for regular Naryn SEZ entities. The fee for the right to conduct activities will be 1 percent of the revenue received from the sale of goods, works, and services both domestically and in foreign markets.
