For a Kaspi seller that is your entire active catalog. The good news: products with a factory barcode are usually already described in the catalog, and their NTIN is found automatically. You only enter manually what is not yet in the catalog. ![A till with a receipt on the counter — products matched by barcode via the National Catalog](https://aww.kz/images/marketing/nkt-pos-terminal-800w.webp) Receipt ← barcode match Why it blocks sales ## How Kaspi and the till check the NTIN Cash registers are integrated with the National Catalog: at the point of sale the product is matched by barcode. If the item is not in NCT, the fiscal receipt won’t form and ЭСФ/СНТ won’t pass. Kaspi works the same way — a card for an unregistered product isn’t published. So an NTIN is not red tape, it is the technical pass to sell. ![A box, a clock and a calendar — the NCT registration deadline is approaching](https://aww.kz/images/marketing/nkt-deadline-800w.webp) Moderation ~3 working days Timing ## Why you shouldn’t wait until 1 July Moderation of a card takes about 3 working days, and if the data has errors the card is returned for revision — and the cycle repeats. A seller starting on 30 June is already late. The sensible strategy is to clear everything you can by barcode auto-lookup right now, and calmly fill in the remaining barcode-less long tail before the deadline. Get ready ## What to prepare for registration ### E-signature or Egov To sign in to nationalcatalog.kz. ### NCT API key Cabinet → «API keys» → «Create key». ### Barcodes (GTIN) For NTIN auto-lookup on most products. ### RU and KK names Needed for cards of barcode-less products. Step by step ## How to get an NTIN for Kaspi products 1 ### Register in the National Catalog Sign in to nationalcatalog.kz with your e-signature (ЭЦП) or Egov and create your organization profile. It is a free government service. 2 ### Get your NCT API key In the cabinet open «API keys» → «Create key». The key lets you find and register products automatically instead of one by one. 3 ### Find NTIN by barcode (GTIN) Products with a factory barcode are often already in the catalog — their NTIN is found automatically by GTIN. This clears most of your range in minutes. 4 ### Create cards for the rest For products with no existing record, fill in a card: ОКТРУ classifier, HS code (ТН ВЭД), name in Russian and Kazakh, country of origin and attributes. 5 ### Send to moderation NCT moderation takes about 3 working days. A card can be returned «for revision» — fix the listed fields and resubmit. 6 ### Product is registered Once approved, the product gets an NTIN. Kaspi and the cash register match the product by barcode, so you usually don’t need to type the code into the Kaspi card separately. ## Key terms in plain words ### NTIN 13-digit national goods code of Kazakhstan, starts with 02. Permanent, issued by NCT for free. ### GTIN (barcode) Global barcode of 8/12/13/14 digits on the packaging. The key for NTIN auto-lookup in the catalog. ### XTIN Temporary code starting with 004. The till assigns it automatically for ~30 days while there is no NTIN. ### ОКТРУ and ТН ВЭД Product-type classifier and customs (HS) code. Required when creating a new card in NCT. ## What the National Catalog and NTIN are for a Kaspi seller **The National Catalog of Goods (NCT)** is Kazakhstan’s state system where every product is assigned an **NTIN**: a 13-digit code starting with 02. From 2026 the state phases in a requirement that every sold product be registered in the catalog. For a Kaspi seller the rule is simple: no NTIN, no legal sale — the till, e-invoices and the marketplace all check against the catalog. ## Why the barcode (GTIN) path is the fastest If a product has a factory barcode (GTIN), it is usually already described in the catalog — and its NTIN is found automatically in seconds. That clears most of your range without a single manual card. Barcode-less products are the long tail: for them a card in NCT must be filled in by hand (ОКТРУ, HS code, name in Russian and Kazakh, country, attributes). So the first sensible step is to learn how many of your products are covered by the fast path and how many need manual work — which is exactly what the readiness check at the top of this page shows. ## How much it costs and where the savings are Registration in NCT is a free government service — there is no separate fee for an NTIN. The money in this niche goes to middlemen: a typical rate is around 50 ₸ per product, and turnkey manual registration of a hundred items is priced in the tens of thousands of tenge. AWW makes registration free because your Kaspi cabinet is already connected and the catalog synced — we don’t start from scratch like services that first ask you to connect a store. ## The temporary XTIN code — a bridge, not a solution If a product is not yet in the catalog, the till can assign a temporary XTIN code (starts with 004) for about 30 days so the receipt passes. It helps in the moment but does not remove the obligation to obtain a permanent NTIN. You cannot rely on XTIN as a permanent solution: the term is limited and it is not a replacement for registration. ## Who the requirement applies to The requirement covers everyone who sells physical goods: sole traders and companies, on simplified or general tax regimes, own production and resale. If you only resell someone else’s product with a factory barcode, you usually don’t create a card from scratch — the product is already in the catalog and you just find its NTIN by GTIN. Services, work and digital products are not covered by NCT — it is only about goods. ## What to do if there is no barcode Some goods — loose, no-name, handmade, small-batch imports — have no factory GTIN. There are two paths: obtain a barcode via GS1 Kazakhstan and then an NTIN, or create a card in NCT manually as own production, specifying ОКТРУ, HS code, a name in two languages and attributes (GTIN is not required there). To avoid stopping sales during processing, the till can temporarily assign an XTIN. ## Common registration mistakes - Wrong ОКТРУ — the most common reason a card is returned for revision. - Missing Kazakh name: it is mandatory alongside the Russian one. - Confusing GTIN and NTIN — they are different codes with different purposes. - Wrong HS code (ТН ВЭД) or missing measurable attributes. - Leaving registration to the last days — with moderation that already means being late. ## If the card is returned «for revision» NCT returns the card noting the field to fix — most often the attributes, units of measure or ОКТРУ. Fix what is listed and resubmit; the re-check runs for the same period. Don’t create a duplicate card — that only lengthens the process and creates extra records. ## Do you need an NTIN for other marketplaces The requirement is national, not «about Kaspi»: an NTIN is equally needed for Halyk Market, Wildberries and Ozon in Kazakhstan, as well as for the offline till. Register a product once in the National Catalog and you cover every sales channel at once — no need to re-do it per platform.

NTIN is a 13-digit national goods code of Kazakhstan starting with 02. It is assigned by the state National Catalog (NCT) and confirms the product is officially registered. GTIN is the global barcode on the packaging (8/12/13/14 digits). GTIN is the key: it is used to find the product in the catalog and quickly obtain its NTIN. ### By what date must goods be registered in NCT? For small and micro business — by 1 July 2026. Importers and manufacturers had to finish by 1 March 2026, retail chains by 1 April 2026. Since moderation takes about 3 working days, you should start early, not on 30 June. ### How much does it cost to get an NTIN? Registration in the National Catalog is a free government service — there is no fee for an NTIN. You only pay with time or to a middleman (usually around 50 ₸ per product). AWW helps for free because your Kaspi cabinet and catalog are already connected. ### What happens if you miss the deadline? After 1 July 2026, for products without an NTIN the cash register won’t print a receipt, e-invoices (ЭСФ) and waybills (СНТ) won’t be issued for that line, and Kaspi won’t publish or will hide the card. It is effectively an operational sales block, not a soft reminder. ### How long does moderation take? About 3 working days for commerce (up to 10 for government procurement). That is the review time, not the tool’s speed: lookup and submission are instant, the wait depends on the catalog. ### My product has no barcode — what do I do? Without a barcode, NTIN can’t be found automatically — you create a card manually in the National Catalog: ОКТРУ, HS code, name in two languages and attributes. The readiness check on this page instantly shows how many of your products need manual entry. ### What is XTIN (temporary code 004)? XTIN is a temporary 13-digit code starting with 004. The cash register assigns it automatically when a product is not yet in the catalog so the receipt can pass. It lasts about 30 days and can be extended. It is a bridge, not a replacement — you still must obtain a permanent NTIN. ### Do I have to type the NTIN into the Kaspi card manually? Usually no. Kaspi is integrated with NCT and matches the product to the catalog by barcode. The key is that the product exists in NCT with an NTIN and has a correct GTIN; then the match is resolved by barcode. ### Is it safe to share my NCT API key? Only trust a service that never shows or stores the key in plain form. In the AWW app the key is sent once over a secure connection, encrypted on the server, and never returned or written to logs. This web page does not ask for the key at all — the readiness check runs locally in your browser. ### Do I need an NTIN if I only resell someone else’s product? Yes, you can’t sell without an NTIN either way. But if the product already has a factory barcode, it is likely already in the catalog — you don’t create a card from scratch, you just find the existing NTIN by GTIN. Manual card creation is only for products not yet in the catalog. ### Does the requirement apply to services? No. The National Catalog and NTIN apply only to physical goods. Services, work and digital products are not covered. If you sell both goods and services on Kaspi, only the goods need to be registered. ### Do I need an NTIN for Halyk Market, Wildberries and Ozon? Yes. The requirement is national, not «Kaspi-only»: NTIN is needed for all sales channels in Kazakhstan — Kaspi, Halyk Market, Wildberries, Ozon and offline cash registers. Register a product once in NCT and you cover every channel. ### I have several thousand products — how do I avoid registering each by hand? Manually registering thousands of items in the time left is unrealistic. The bulk is cleared by NTIN auto-lookup by barcode: the AWW app takes your already-synced Kaspi catalog and finds NTINs for every product with a GTIN in one pass. Only a small long tail without barcodes stays manual. ### How does AWW help with NCT registration? For most services the first step is connecting a Kaspi store from scratch. For AWW users the cabinet is already connected and the catalog synced. So in the app, NCT registration is one screen: paste your NCT key, run NTIN auto-lookup across all products at once, send the rest to moderation and export the result to CSV. ## Official sources [nationalcatalog.kz](https://nationalcatalog.kz) [guide.kaspi.kz](https://guide.kaspi.kz) [ismet.kz/ru/nct](https://ismet.kz/ru/nct) Updated 16 June 2026.
