Starting September 26, 2026, companies issuing digital financial assets (DFAs) will begin reporting quarterly to the National Bank. The new requirements were approved by a joint resolution of the National Bank and the Agency for Regulation and Development of the Financial Market (ARDFM), Profit.kz reports, citing the Uchet.kz portal.
Finteqstan previously reported that Kazakhstanis executed 21.5 billion tenge in crypto asset trades on the KASE platform; now regulators are detailing their oversight of tokenized instrument issuers.
Who the new requirements affect
The rules apply to issuers of digital assets backed by financial instruments (including securities and derivatives), property rights, commodities, or other property, excluding money. Operators of platforms where these digital instruments are issued must also report.
Data submission mechanics
The EXC-8 form report must be submitted electronically to the National Bank no later than the tenth working day of the month following the reporting quarter.
The document must contain the name of the asset and the underlying collateral, issuer data (BIN and full name), issue volume, currency, and value.
All financial indicators are specified in the national currency. If an asset is issued in a foreign currency, its value is converted into tenge at the market rate on the report date.
The document is certified by the head’s electronic digital signature (EDS). When uploading data, the system performs automatic checks—reports with errors will not be accepted. If a company had no operations during the reporting period, it must notify the regulator with a separate letter within the same timeframe.
