Industrial gold origin whose central bank buys most domestic output. Miners hold Subsoil Code licences (mining licence up to 25 years; artisanal licences for citizens only). Law 444-V (2016) requires mined gold and raw materials (doré, cathode, zinc precipitate, concentrates) to be refined by Kazakh producers on the authorised body's list; raw material may be exported only with refusals from all listed producers and a feasibility conclusion. The NBK has the state's priority right to buy refined gold (art. 9): half-yearly forecasts and limits, market price less transport and LBMA quality adjustments, VAT 0% (Tax Code 2025 art. 472). Refined gold may be exported only with proof of NBK refusal, an export licence and a per-shipment act of state control (Order 375, in force Dec 2024). MET on gold rose from 7.5% flat to a 7.5-11% price-banded scale from 1 Jan 2026; VAT rose to 16%. Since 2025 the NBK sterilises gold purchases by selling dollars ('mirroring'). AML reporting threshold for precious metals is 50m KZT.

نص القانونمحجوبالأساس القانوني: Order of the Minister of Industry and Construction No. 375 of 29.10.2024, paras 10, 17-19
Mined gold and raw materials (doré, cathode metal, zinc precipitate, scrap, ores and concentrates) must go to Kazakh precious-metal producers for processing/refining. Export of raw materials requires refusals from all listed producers and a conclusion that domestic extraction is not feasible.

The state has a priority right to buy refined gold for NBK assets. Producers and owners of refined gold after processing must sell refined gold, produced in Kazakhstan or abroad, to the NBK first, within half-yearly limits set from their forecasts; only gold the NBK refuses may go to third parties. In practice the NBK buys most refined output.

حيث تخالف الممارسة القانون
ما تُظهر المصادر الموثوقة حدوثه دون أن ينص عليه القانون.
Since 2025 the NBK offsets the tenge issued for gold purchases by selling equal amounts of US dollars on the domestic market (the 'mirroring mechanism'). This changes the macro effect of the purchases, not the legal duty of producers to offer gold.
إرشاد رسميغير مسجَّلBy law the NBK holds a priority right, not a monopoly: gold it refuses may be sold to anyone and exported. In practice nearly all refined output is sold to the NBK, so private export of refined gold is rare and the lawful export route for Kazakh gold is mainly the NBK's own reserve management.
مصدر ثانويغير مسجَّلملاحظة الباحث: Share of output bought by NBK not quantified from a primary source.
