Import into Kazakhstan

Embracing tech opportunities is vital for Kazakhstan, a country largely dependent on exporting natural resources like crude oil. To support this shift, the Kazakh government established Astana Hub, a technopark offering free infrastructure and valuable training to startups, guided by both local and international mentors. If you're importing tech equipment into Kazakhstan, you'll need an IOR who understands the specific certifications and permits necessary for your products.

Pain Points

Trade Pain Points and Possibilities

Kazakhstan has revamped its customs rules to improve the flow of goods, but you’ll still need a local registered partner to be your Importer of Record (IOR) for all shipments.

Certain manufacturers might face customs restrictions in Kazakhstan. To help you navigate these rules, TecEx’s compliance experts are here to assist. We know and understand the ins and outs of Kazakhstan’s import restrictions, making the process smoother.

Some products might also need specific certifications and permits. Speak to your IOR to guide you through this and ensure everything aligns with Kazakh regulations.

Kazakhstan has free trade agreements with the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), which can exempt certain goods from customs duties under certain conditions. However, having a local partner as your IOR is still essential for hassle-free customs clearance.
