Kazakhstan may introduce paid electronic entry permits for foreign citizens and stateless persons. The document is published on the portal "Open NPAs".

The project is still under public discussion, which will last until August 17. The cost of obtaining an electronic permit is not indicated in the text. The Ministry of Internal Affairs of Kazakhstan reported that the funds received are planned to be used for the maintenance and modernization of digital infrastructure, as well as to ensure the protection of personal data.

The agency proposes to implement the new system in stages from August to December 2026.
