SANCTIONS & TRADE COMPLIANCE \u00a0\u00b7\u00a0 KAZAKHSTAN<\/p>\n
Bond Stone advises Kazakhstan companies, importers, and foreign investors on export controls \u2014 the US Export Administration Regulations (EAR), Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) Entity List, EU dual-use goods regulations, and Kazakhstan’s own export control framework. Kazakhstan has emerged as a significant focus of Western export control enforcement due to its role in regional trade flows adjacent to sanctioned jurisdictions.<\/p>\n
US Export Administration Regulations (EAR)<\/p>\n
The US EAR \u2014 administered by the Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) \u2014 controls the export, re-export, and in-country transfer of items on the Commerce Control List (CCL). EAR jurisdiction extends to items of US origin anywhere in the world, regardless of where the exporting company is located. A Kazakhstan company importing US-origin goods and re-exporting them \u2014 directly or indirectly \u2014 to a sanctioned destination or an entity on the BIS Entity List violates the EAR and exposes the company’s US suppliers to enforcement action, and potentially the Kazakhstan company itself to denial of US export privileges.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
BIS Entity List \u2014 Kazakhstan entities<\/p>\n
The BIS Entity List identifies specific companies and individuals subject to licence requirements for all items subject to EAR. Multiple Kazakhstan entities have been added to the BIS Entity List since 2022 for alleged involvement in supplying controlled goods to Russia. A Kazakhstan company on the Entity List is effectively cut off from US-origin components, software, and technology \u2014 a significant operational constraint for companies in electronics, industrial equipment, and technology sectors. Bond Stone advises on Entity List assessment, licence applications, and compliance remediation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
EU dual-use goods \u2014 Regulation 2021\/821<\/p>\n
EU Regulation 2021\/821 controls the export of dual-use items \u2014 goods, software, and technology that have both civilian and military applications. The EU has significantly expanded its dual-use controls in the context of Russia sanctions, adding new items and tightening re-export restrictions. A Kazakhstan company importing EU-origin dual-use goods and re-exporting them must ensure compliance with EU re-export controls \u2014 and EU exporters are required to conduct due diligence on the ultimate destination of dual-use goods exported to Kazakhstan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Kazakhstan’s export control framework<\/p>\n
Kazakhstan maintains its own export control framework \u2014 the Law on Export Control of Weapons and Military Equipment and related subordinate legislation \u2014 which controls the export of military goods, dual-use items, and goods subject to international treaties. Kazakhstan is a member of several international export control regimes. Bond Stone advises on Kazakhstan export licence requirements for controlled goods and compliance with Kazakhstan’s domestic export control obligations alongside international requirements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
End-user certificates and due diligence<\/p>\n
A key tool in export control compliance is the end-user certificate (EUC) \u2014 a document provided by the importing company or its government confirming the intended end use and end user of controlled goods. Western export control authorities increasingly require EUCs from Kazakhstan importers as a condition of export licence approval. Bond Stone advises on preparing and submitting EUC documentation and implementing end-user screening protocols.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
