Primary authority: Civil Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan No. 268-XIII dated 27 December 1994; Law “On State Registration of Rights to Immovable Property” No. 310-VI dated 26 July 2007. Authority: adilet.zan.kz<\/a><\/p>\n Asset deal vs share deal \u2014 key considerations<\/p>\n Asset acquisitions in Kazakhstan are used where: the buyer does not wish to assume the seller’s historical liabilities; the transaction involves a discrete asset rather than an entire business; the seller is in financial distress; or the transaction involves a subsoil use licence that cannot be transferred through a share deal. Each asset class \u2014 real property, equipment, IP, licences \u2014 has its own transfer procedure and regulatory requirements under Kazakhstani law.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Real property acquisition<\/p>\n Transfer of real property in Kazakhstan requires notarisation of the purchase agreement and state registration of the transfer in the State Registry of Real Property Rights. Bond Stone conducts title searches, verifies the absence of encumbrances and mortgages, and manages the full notarisation and registration process. For commercial real estate portfolios, Bond Stone advises on structuring the acquisition as a share deal or asset deal based on the tax and liability profile.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Subsoil use licence transfer<\/p>\n Transfer of a subsoil use licence (contract) in Kazakhstan requires prior approval from the Ministry of Energy or the Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure Development, depending on the mineral type. The transferee must meet the qualification requirements for subsoil use. Bond Stone manages the full licence transfer process \u2014 from pre-approval application through licence amendment and state registration.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Equipment and movable property<\/p>\n Transfer of equipment and movable property in Kazakhstan requires a purchase agreement and delivery documentation. Where the equipment is pledged as security under an existing financing arrangement, the pledgee’s consent is required for transfer. Bond Stone verifies the absence of encumbrances through the State Registry of Encumbrances on Movable Property before closing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Distressed asset transactions<\/p>\n In distressed situations \u2014 enforcement of security, bankruptcy sales, and enforced execution \u2014 asset acquisitions follow specific statutory procedures that differ from voluntary transactions. Bond Stone advises buyers on acquiring assets from distressed sellers in Kazakhstan \u2014 including assessment of vulnerability to subsequent challenge by the seller’s creditors.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Bond Stone has advised on M&A transactions in Kazakhstan since 2007.
