On July 1, 2026, Kazakhstan will implement a new Construction Code that specifies requirements for commissioning construction projects, preventing illegal construction, and ensuring the safety of structures.

This announcement was made by Berik Duysenov, Head of the Urban Environment Quality and Control Department, during a briefing at the Shymkent Regional Communications Service platform.

According to the new standards, a state construction inspector must participate in the commissioning procedure of a construction project. If projects are found to have been built without permission or in violation of established requirements, the relevant information must be forwarded to the authorized architectural and urban planning bodies within three working days.
