Fast registration of branches and representative offices in Kazakhstan – fully set up and ready to operate
HOW DOES A BRANCH DIFFER FROM A REPRESENTATIVE OFFICE?
REGISTRATION OF A BRANCH OR REPRESENTATIVE OFFICE IN KAZAKHSTAN
A branch is a separate subdivision of a legal entity, located away from the entity's registered address, that performs all or part of its functions, including those of a representative office.
A representative office is a separate subdivision of a legal entity, located away from the entity's registered address, that protects and represents the entity's interests and enters into transactions and other legal acts on its behalf, except where legislative acts of the Republic of Kazakhstan provide otherwise.
In practice, this means a representative office cannot carry out production activities or provide services: it can sign a contract on behalf of the parent company but cannot perform it, whereas a branch can do both.
