This initiative aims not only to improve the quality and efficiency of public services, but also to increase transparency and reduce processing times, thanks to a mobile application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3 key services available now<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although full rollout is planned in stages, three major services are already available via the mobile app:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The electronic visa (e-Visa) :<\/strong> Citizens of 109 countries can now apply for a single-entry visa for a variety of categories, including tourism, business, medical care, or the <strong>\u00abDigital Nomad Visa\u00bb<\/strong>. This visa, issued on the basis of an electronic invitation, allows entry and exit only via border control points at the country's international airports.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA):<\/strong> Intended for citizens of visa-exempt countries, this authorization must be requested via the application no later than 72 hours before travel. Valid for 180 days, the ETA does not guarantee entry, as the final decision rests with the migration authorities. <strong>During the pilot phase, obtaining ETA is recommended but not compulsory; it will gradually become so thereafter.<\/strong>. Visa-exempt nationals can travel without a visa, for stays of up to 30 days. The authorities have reinstated the <strong>visa-free regime for 54 countries<\/strong>, including European nationals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The e-Residency:<\/strong> This innovative feature enables foreigners located outside Kazakhstan to access services at the Astana International Financial Center (AIFC), such as opening bank accounts, obtaining an Individual Identification Number (IIN) or registering a business remotely.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>For future requests, we advise you to use the mobile application. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Perspectives and accessibility<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The QazETA application is now available for download from <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.qazeta\">Google Play<\/a> And <a href=\"https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/sn\/app\/qazeta\/id6748705452?l=fr-FR\">the App Store<\/a>. The authorities plan to expand the platform's functionalities in the near future, notably with the issuance of health insurance and the introduction of Fast Track border crossing for ETA holders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A technical support service has been set up to assist users during this launch phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on your nationality and the duration of your trip, you can use the application to check whether you are visa-exempt or eligible for e-Visa or ETA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Travelling to Kazakhstan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A true crossroads between Europe and Asia, Kazakhstan is an emerging destination that fascinates with its immoderation and contrasts. From the endless steppes to the dizzying peaks of the Tian Shan Mountains, from the futuristic architecture of Astana to the ochre canyons of Charyn, the country offers a breathtaking diversity of landscapes. It's a land of adventure, ideal for discovering the legendary hospitality of nomadic culture and exploring the preserved vestiges of the Silk Road, far from mass tourism.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kazakhstan is taking a further step towards modernizing its public services with the launch on January 23, 2026 of QazETA, a digital state platform for foreign nationals.
