Feed additive and animal nutrition product registration

We manage the state registration of feed additives, premixes and feed concentrates in Kazakhstan and across the EAEU: dossier preparation, veterinary and sanitary review, entry in the state register, and the documentation that keeps regular shipments moving.

  • Enzyme, yeast and probiotic additives
  • Fermented soybean meal and protein components
  • Import support and veterinary control

What governs the feed additive trade

Feed additives fall under veterinary supervision: their circulation is controlled by the veterinary service, and import into Kazakhstan is possible only after state registration and entry in the corresponding state register. Requirements come both from Kazakhstan national law and from EAEU veterinary and sanitary measures.

For an importer the second layer matters just as much — the requirements on the manufacturer itself. The producing plant must meet veterinary and sanitary requirements and be cleared for supply; without that, a registered product still will not ship. We run both parts: product registration and getting the manufacturer ready to supply.

Step

How feed additive registration works

From composition review to regular shipments.

  1. Step 1

    Product assessment

    We review the composition and intended use and determine the product category and applicable procedure: state registration as a feed additive, declaration as a feed material, or veterinary control at import.

  2. Step 2

    Dossier and documentation

    We compile the composition, specification, safety parameters, efficacy and usage data, instructions for use and the draft label. We translate and legalise the manufacturer's documents.

  3. Step 3

    Review and testing

    We arrange laboratory testing of safety parameters and confirmation of the declared composition, and support the veterinary and sanitary review including responses to reviewers' comments.

  4. Step 4

    Register and shipments

    We see the file through to entry in the state register, prepare the manufacturer for supply, and set up the accompanying documentation for each consignment.

What we need from the manufacturer

A baseline set to get started.

  • Full qualitative and quantitative composition
  • Specification and certificate of analysis (CoA)
  • Safety parameters: heavy metals, mycotoxins, microbiology
  • Instructions for use with inclusion rates and target species
  • Production flow chart and quality control description
  • Certificate of registration in the country of manufacture
  • Documents confirming the plant's veterinary and sanitary status
  • Draft label and packaging description
  • Power of attorney

We check the composition against EAEU requirements separately: some components permitted in third countries need additional justification here.

What the service covers

From classification to the first shipment.

  • Product category

    We establish whether it is a feed additive, a feed material or a compound feed — this drives the entire procedure.

  • Dossier

    We build and assemble the package to Kazakhstan and EAEU requirements and handle correspondence with the veterinary service.

  • Laboratory testing

    We arrange safety testing and confirmation of composition at accredited laboratories.

  • State register

    We see the file through to the register entry and the registration document.

  • Import

    We prepare the manufacturer for supply and support veterinary control on incoming consignments.

  • Post-registration support

    We track expiry dates, file variations and renew the registration on time.

FAQ

Feed additive FAQ

What importers ask most often.

Does a feed material such as meal require registration?

Feed materials and compound feeds generally go through veterinary control at import and conformity assessment rather than state registration. State registration applies to feed additives — premixes, enzymes, probiotics, vitamin and mineral complexes. We establish which side of the line your product falls on from its composition and claimed purpose.

Is a Russian registration enough to supply Kazakhstan?

Requirements within the EAEU are largely harmonised and a Russian dossier speeds the work up considerably, but automatic recognition should not be assumed. We assess the existing package and fill the gaps against Kazakhstan requirements instead of rebuilding the dossier from scratch.

What is required of the manufacturing plant itself?

The plant must meet veterinary and sanitary requirements and be cleared to supply the EAEU. This is a separate workstream best started in parallel with product registration: a registered product from a non-cleared plant cannot be imported.

How long does feed additive registration take?

Most of the time goes into laboratory testing and expert review. With a complete document set from the manufacturer, projects are usually measured in months rather than seasons — unlike pesticides, there is no dependency on the growing season. We give a firm estimate after reviewing the composition and documents.

Do you work with Chinese manufacturers?

Yes, they account for a significant share of our projects. Beyond the registration itself we handle translation and legalisation, align the technical documentation with Kazakhstan requirements, and deal directly with the plant on any missing data.
