Abstract

This article analyzes the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan in terms of the creation and functioning of special economic and industrial zones. The definition of such concepts as "special economic" and "industrial" zones is given. A comparative analysis of the rules and procedure for the creation of special economic and industrial zones has been carried out, common features and peculiarities of their functioning have been established. It is established that special economic zones are created in order to attract foreign investment into the economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan by decision of the Government, which significantly increases its status and responsibility for the implementation of projects on its territory. The purpose of creating an industrial zone is also to attract investments, but already in the development of a certain region of the Republic of Kazakhstan on the basis of a decision of the local executive body and the akim of the relevant region is responsible for the implementation of projects in the territory of the industrial zone.
