Visa-Free Regime for Turkish Citizens in Kazakhstan


Visa-Free Regime for Turkish Citizens in Kazakhstan

As part of its ongoing migration policy, the government of Kazakhstan provides for the possibility of visa-free stays for Turkish citizens for up to 90 days.

The government of Kazakhstan is introducing amendments to the rules governing the entry and exit of migrants, as well as to migration control regulations.

According to the draft document prepared by the government of Kazakhstan, citizens of 66 countries — including Australia, the United States of America (USA), the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Japan, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), South Korea, Canada, Italy, and others — will be able to enter and remain in Kazakhstan without a visa for up to 30 calendar days from the date of crossing the border. Additionally, the total period of stay must not exceed 90 days within a 180-day period.

NO VISA REQUIRED FOR TURKISH CITIZENS
If a migrant's purpose of visit changes after entering Kazakhstan, or if the permitted stay period is exceeded, a visa must be obtained prior to entering the Republic of Kazakhstan. According to the published document granting privileges to Turkish citizens, they will be able to enter and exit Kazakhstan without a visa, provided their stay does not exceed 90 days within every 180-calendar-day period from the date of entry.

"THE GOAL IS TO DEVELOP CLOSE COOPERATION WITH TURKEY"
The document published by the government of Kazakhstan regarding the visa-free regime for Turkish citizens states: “The goal is to develop close cooperation with Turkey, create favorable conditions for investment and tourism in Kazakhstan, and strengthen economic diplomacy.”
