Legalisation of unauthorised construction
A building, extension or outbuilding erected without permits — an engineering report on its technical condition for subsequent legalisation.
- from 200,000 KZT
- 1–6 weeks
- 300+ projects across Kazakhstan
- accepted by GASK, the akimat and state expert review
When this is relevant
Structures erected without permits — a building, an extension, a garage or an outbuilding — create risks in a subsequent sale or insurance of the property. Legalisation requires an engineering report confirming the property's safety and compliance with the codes.
KAZNICEP LLP inspects the unauthorised structure, assesses its technical condition and compliance with the building codes of Kazakhstan, and prepares a report for subsequent legalisation.
Legalisation of unauthorised construction goes through the authorised bodies; the engineering report is the key document confirming the safety of the property.
A site visit and inspection of the structure's elements.
Assessment of the property's compliance with building and fire-safety codes.
A check for any threat to life and health and impact on neighbouring properties.
An engineering report — the basis for administrative legalisation through the authorised bodies.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a technical building inspection cost?
The cost starts from 200,000 KZT and depends on the property: floor area, number of storeys, structural scheme, condition of the structures and scope of work. We give an exact price after clarifying the input data for the property.
How long does the inspection and the issue of the report take?
From 1 to 6 weeks. The timeline depends on the area and complexity of the property, the volume of instrumental work and the need for verification calculations.
Is your report suitable for GASK, the akimat and state expert review?
Yes. The engineering report is prepared in accordance with the building codes of the Republic of Kazakhstan and is used for approvals with the authorised bodies and when passing state expert review.
How long is the engineering report valid?
As a rule, 3 years — provided the condition of the property, the loads and the operating conditions have not changed. If new defects appear or loads increase, a repeat inspection is required.
Do you travel around Almaty and the region?
Yes, we travel around Almaty and the Almaty Region. Large properties — administrative, industrial and public buildings — we inspect across Kazakhstan.
What do you need to get started?
Just describe the property: address, building type and task (redevelopment, reconstruction, condition assessment). If you have a technical passport or design documentation, attach it — this speeds up the work.
Can a building erected without a permit be legalised?
In most cases yes — if the property is safe and does not infringe the rights of third parties. The basis is a report on the technical condition of the structure.
Technical
inspection of buildings
Legalising unauthorised construction is carried out on the basis of a technical inspection of the property.
