Kazakhstan welcomes foreign specialists and ‘neo-nomads’

The Kazakh Foreign Ministry has said that starting from November 18, 2024, Kazakhstan is implementing updated visa regulations aimed at creating favorable conditions for business immigrants, skilled professionals, and travelers.

The new measures include:

– B9 Visa – for representatives of sought-after professions, which allows further registration of a residence permit;

– Digital Nomad Visa – a single-entry electronic or multiple-entry paper visa for IT specialists, allowing long-term residence;

– Neo Nomad Visa – a tourist visa for “neo-nomads” granting extended stays for those with a verified monthly income of at least 3,000 US dollars.

– The required documentation for a business visa C5 has been significantly reduced, and the minimum duration of marriage for family reunification visas has been shortened from three years to one.

These measures aim to improve the investment climate, foster international collaboration, attract skilled professionals, and enhance Kazakhstan’s appeal as a tourist destination, the ministry said.
