Auditors can now apply for a state auditor's certificate online via the eGov.kz portal.

The state auditor's certificate is a document confirming the qualifications of an auditor authorized to audit the financial statements of public and private organizations in the Republic of Kazakhstan. The document is issued by the National Commission, has a special level of protection and certifies that the candidate is qualified as a state auditor at the appropriate level.

To obtain a state auditor's certificate, you must submit documents and an application on the eGov.kz portal, go through an interview and have your qualifications confirmed.

All stages of submitting an application, checking documents and receiving certificates can be monitored online via your personal account.

In the event of a refusal, you will be able to resubmit the documents.

Ten working days before the interview, a list of eligible candidates will be published on the website of the Supreme Audit Chamber of the Republic of Kazakhstan, indicating the time and place of the interview. An SMS notification is also sent to users.
