Two new services were automated on e-liсense.kz portal: provision of information about digital mining activities and notification on commencement/termination of waste collection, sorting and transportation.

Today, pursuant to the Order of MDDIAI RK as of October 13, 2020 No. 384/NK, an entrepreneur in the field of digital mining does not need a license to engage in this activity, it is only necessary to send an electronic application to start the activity using a new service on eliсense.kz portal and get permission online.

To provide information about digital mining activities on the portal, an applicant should fill-in the following:

• statement on capacity requirements in megawatts (MW);
• specify the number of planned workplaces;
• planned investments (KZT);
• IP address (dedicated pool of IP addresses);
• information about a location of data center for digital mining.

After processing of an application by a government agency, information is automatically entered into the Register of permits (upon approval) or automatically entered into the Register of refusals (upon substantiated refusal).

The service delivery result is a permit or substantiated refusal, which is sent within 15 days to a user's personal account on e-license.kz portal ("My permits" module).

Also, a service for notification on waste collection, sorting and transportation has become available on e-license.kz portal. On e-license.kz portal, a user:

• submits an application specifying a name of business entity in the field of waste management;
• information about a subject, location;
• name of activity or action.

The submitted notification is entered into the Register of subjects of notification procedure automatically.

The service delivery result is sent within 3-5 minutes to a user's personal account in the form of a coupon for receiving a Notification.

Previously, the service was available only on paper and users applied through an administrative office of a government agency.

It should be noted that login and authorization on the e-license.kz portal is carried out using a one-time password for individuals. Also, authorization using digital signature for legal entities and individuals remains unchanged.

To date, 435 services for individuals and legal entities are available on the e-license portal, of which 250 services for individuals can be obtained using the eGov mobile app.
