No, you don't need a separate registration for this.

• If you are a citizen of Kazakhstan or kandas, just register with inDrive as a driver or courier.
• If you are a driver transporting passengers, you must also submit a notification on Elicense.kz to register your activity as a taxi carrier.
• Your self-employed status starts automatically after your first completed order. We will send your income data to the tax office.

inDrive will handle the tax payments for you:

• The service deducts 4% from every order and pays it to the government on your behalf.
• For card payments, the tax is deducted instantly. For cash payments, it will be taken from your in-app balance.
• You can see your tax payment info in the app and your personal tax account.

‍

The 4% tax covers all your social contributions:

• 1% — pension.
• 1% — employer pension contributions.
• 1% — social contributions.
• 1% — health insurance.

For example: from every 100 ₸ you get, we’ll send 2 ₸ to your pension account (covering both contributions), 1 ₸ to the State Social Insurance Fund, and 1 ₸ to the health insurance system.

These are all the required payments for self-employed individuals.

If you have a special status (e.g., disability, pensioner, etc.), we will refund any over-withheld taxes on the 25th of the month following the reporting month. The payment itself will not be made for those contributions from which the taxpayer is exempt.

In the self-employed regime, fiscal receipts are generated automatically when the ride is completed through the e-Salyq service. The driver/courier does not need to generate them manually in e-Salyq Business or in banking apps.

Yes. To accept cashless payments in the self-employed regime, drivers must open a special bank account. Opening a special account allows you to keep your personal transactions separate from transactions related to your self-employed activity.

Contact our Support team, and we will help you choose the right option for you.

Yes, you can combine them:

• You can be on the self-employed regime and have a main job.

• Just make sure your main job allows you to have a second job. For example, government employees may have restrictions here.

Here are the options for foreign citizens:
