The Republic of Kazakhstan is the central Eurasian state with a population of more than 18 million people. The republic is located between the Caspian Sea, the Urals, Siberia, China and Central Asia. Find out who Kazakhstan borders with.

Kazakhstan is one of the largest countries in the world (9th largest), which has such a distinctive feature as the lack of direct access to the open sea.

In terms of shape and an excess of almost two times the length from west to east (2.96 thousand km) than from north to south (1.65 thousand km), Kazakhstan on the map resembles a small copy of the mainland Eurasia. At the same time, 85% of the country is located in Asia, and 15% - in Europe.

Despite the huge occupied territory of Kazakhstan (2.7 million sq. Km), not many people live in the Republic.

Kazakhstan ranks 63rd in the world in terms of population. This means that the density of settlement in Kazakhstan per person is 6.64 square meters. km - 184th place in the world.

Such a low population density is explained by the predominance of deserts and semi-deserts among the natural zones of the Republic.

To understand what international relations can be successfully built with neighboring countries, it is necessary to find out with whom Kazakhstan borders.

First we find out the general information:

  1. The land borders of Kazakhstan have a total length of 13.39 thousand km.
  2. The water border of the Caspian Sea accounts for 2.34 thousand km, where Kazakhstan borders with Azerbaijan and Iran.

Let's see which countries Kazakhstan borders on land:

  • In the north and west - with the Russian Federation.

Here, the longest border of Kazakhstan is 7.55 thousand km.

The border is largely arbitrary. This is due to the fact that countries are members of the Eurasian Economic Union, thanks to which market and customs relations between them are facilitated as much as possible.

  • In the south, the Republic adjoins immediately with three Central Asian countries: Uzbekistan (border length 2.35 thousand km), Kyrgyzstan (1.24 thousand km) and Turkmenistan (0.43 thousand km).

Borders are set to a greater extent arbitrarily. But territorial issues between neighboring countries have long been resolved.

  • In the southeast is the Kazakh-Chinese border. Its length is 1.78 thousand km.

The final borders between the countries were agreed in 2002.

To understand what potential Kazakhstan has in the field of developing international trade and economic relations with neighboring countries, it is necessary to understand with whom the Republic borders.

The convenient location in the practically central part of Eurasia provides Kazakhstan with a neighborhood immediately with 5 countries by land and 2 along the water border.

A few years ago, an agreement on the Common Economic Space was signed between Russia and Kazakhstan. Thanks to this, it has become much easier to cross the state border of these two countries, and the rules for staying in these states have been greatly simplified.

General Provisions

The main thing that Russians entering Kazakhstan should know is that a visa is not required. Citizens of countries that are members of the Single Economic Community can transit without any problems, move freely around the territory of Kazakhstan, and enter and leave. When crossing the border between Russia and Kazakhstan, no fee will be charged for crossing it. These rules also apply to Kazakhs who come to the territory of the Russian Federation.

Required documents

The border of Kazakhstan with Russia has a simplified version of the paperwork. Travelers will only need to provide proof of identity. It should indicate that a person has Russian citizenship. These documents include:

  • internal passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation;
  • service passport;
  • diplomatic certificate;
  • sailor's passport.

It is only necessary to monitor the validity of the document, according to which a person travels to a foreign country, since leaving with an expired passport will be extremely problematic.

If the border is crossed by a minor child who does not yet have an internal passport, it is necessary to take a birth certificate. This document must necessarily indicate that the child is a citizen of Russia.

Citizens of Kazakhstan, crossing the border of the Russian Federation, must also present only a document that confirms their identity and citizenship.

Entry rules

If the border of Kazakhstan with Russia crosses, it should be noted that there are no strict entry rules, you only need to present a document that confirms your identity and citizenship. After the customs officer sees the paper of interest to him, he will put a stamp on his passport that allows him to enter the country.


It is also necessary to fill out a migration card, it should be completed before the start of passport control. It contains passport details, purpose of arrival and date of departure. After all the procedures, you can continue your journey to Kazakhstan, you can stay in the country for three months. Before joining the Customs Union, this period was only five days.

You can fill out a migration card in one of such languages \u200b\u200bas:

  • kazakh;
  • russian;
  • english.

All the time you are in Kazakhstan it is necessary to keep a migration card, when you leave the state the border guard will pick it up.

Car entry

What is the border of Russia with Kazakhstan? Not everyone knows this, but the rules of crossing will not hurt anyone to learn. If the border crosses on your own car, the migration card is filled in exactly the same way as when crossing the state line in any other way.

The driver of the car is the first to passport control, he must present a driver’s license, documents for the car. Then all passengers pass control. If everything is in order with the documents, the customs inspection procedure begins. It is necessary to show not only personal things, but the whole car. In the absence of queues at the border, the whole procedure takes about 10 minutes. Russian customs are passed, if you drive a little further, there will be a neutral territory and the Kazakh side of the customs.


They also ask for documents and ask for the purpose of arrival and the exact date of departure from the country. All this has already been written on the migration card, but the customs officer wants to check if the data is not divergent, and he will also have some opinion about the person entering the country. Then, again, inspection of the car, if there are no complaints from the border guards, the border of Kazakhstan with Russia has been crossed.

However, first you need to get insurance, you can do this directly at the border at the kiosk, the cost of this document is about 500 rubles.

Penalties for traffic violations

Kazakhstan has very high fines for violating traffic rules, so it’s better to go by the rules so as not to attract the attention of local law enforcement agencies.

Type of violation and cost of the fine:

  • turn signal is not included when rebuilding - 3000 rubles;
  • no insurance (which is purchased at the border) - 3000 rubles;
  • when the representative of the traffic police stopped, and without his permission you got out of the car - 3000 rubles;
  • excess of speed by 10 km / h - 6000 rubles.

And other rather high fines. Russian citizens who drive a right-hand drive car are not fined.

Customs clearance

Thanks to the CU, the border between Russia and Kazakhstan is a kind of convention, passing customs takes literally several minutes. Previously, it was necessary to fill out a customs declaration, then they checked the veracity of what was written and so on. Now all this is not there. Customs officers (border guards and customs officers are not the same thing) check documents, and nothing else needs to be filled out.

Customs vehicles are separately, cars separately. The only thing that can drag out the whole process is a bus with passengers standing in line in front of you, then you will have to wait 30-60 minutes.

Rules of stay

If you managed to cross the Kazakhstan-Russia border, you should think about how much you can be in a foreign country. For citizens of the Russian Federation and Kazakhstan, the same rules of stay apply. Foreigners can stay in another country for 30 days without registering. If you need to stay in the country up to three months, then you need to make a temporary registration, it is given for a maximum of 90 days.

Three-month registration can be extended only in one case: if the foreigner has got a formal job and has an employment contract. In this case, the right to stay in the country is extended for the entire period of the contract with the employer.

Border crossing

On the way back, the rules for crossing the Kazakhstan-Russia border are even simpler than they were at the entrance, you do not need to fill out a migration card, you just need to give the tear-off root from it. Only documents proving the identity of the person are checked, whether he has expired the time spent in the country and his car. The whole procedure takes just a few minutes.

findings

Citizens of Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation do not need a visa or a foreign passport to cross their state border. The border of Kazakhstan with Russia has a simplified form of travel, thanks to the vehicle. It is only necessary to fill out a migration card and purchase an insurance policy (if the state border is crossed by your own car). The process of passing customs, if there is no line, takes no more than five minutes.

Drive your car: Russia - Kazakhstan
  Last year, my wife and I decided to take the children to Kazakhstan, Astana, to show a new city. There are many sights there, but not about that today. Impressed by the new rules that entered into force after the signing of the agreement between our countries.


Ali through Kurgan, from which they departed from 7.30 in the morning and at 10 already arrived at the border (Petukhov district). This is where the fun begins.
  Features of moving across the border (rules)
  The crossing rules have been greatly simplified and this is undoubtedly pleasing. Judge for yourself. At the border there are two checkpoints: Russian and Kazakh.
  1. At the first checkpoint I took a ticket stating how many people are in the car with me. At first I entered the document check building, followed by my wife and children. He showed a passport and while my passports were checked, my birth certificate went to check the car. Auto inspected, asked about prohibited items (weapons, drugs, and so on). Everything was in order, and we moved to the exit checkpoint, where we left the issued ticket. It took us no more than 20 minutes to complete this procedure.
  2. A few kilometers must be driven through neutral territory.
  3. At the Kazakh checkpoint, I showed the documents of my wife and children, as well as the technical passport for the car. He took a ticket, where, as well as on the Russian side, the number of people traveling with me was noted. I received migration cards, for the youngest son, he was not yet 14 years old, he did not take a coupon. Such children do not need him. When filling out the purpose of the visit, they set “tourism”, as it was, we went to see the sights. Further, it’s just like on the Russian border: the building for checking documents, screening cars and so on. Here, the matter dragged on for a bit.
  They are more scrupulous, the inspection of the machine is carried out more carefully, and all the information is entered into the computer. Therefore, here we spent twice as much time checking, about 40 minutes.
  4. After leaving the checkpoint, we immediately stopped to purchase Kazakh OSAGO insurance in a special “trailer”. On their territory, our insurance is not valid, and the penalty for its absence is draconian. Therefore, I decided not to take risks, especially since its cost is cheap - 150 rubles for a period of 5 days (2015). Of course, this year it has risen in price a bit, friends said, they paid - 300 rubles. But still, compared to the fine for her absence, these are mere pennies.
5. In the same place where insurance was issued, I bought a Beeline SIM card, only a Kazakh operator. Mobile Internet is needed, and roaming from Russian operators, well, to put it mildly - not very cheap, will cost a pretty penny. I bought and activated a recharge card in order to freely use the Yandex navigator, to find out where what attractions are located.
  6. Another important point is the exchange of rubles in tenge. I asked where you can exchange currency, and, of course, (for the convenience of users) they did everything on the spot. The check, however, was not given, but there was no deception. In principle, if you have a Sberbank card, you can pay in stores and it. And in ATMs you can withdraw cash, although it will be issued exclusively in local currency.
  7. Car refueling is another important point on the trip.
  personally refueled at the gas station "KazMunayGas". This is a kind of Gazprom, only Kazakh. They also accept Sberbank cards and there are a lot of these gas stations in Kazakhstan.
  Going to Kazakhstan, check all the necessary documents, they must be valid, not expired. Otherwise, it will not be possible to cross the border.
  What you need to cross the border between Russia and Kazakhstan
  Honestly, I am very pleased that there is no need to apply for a visa and passport. He took with him the following documents:
  Passport on the wife and eldest son, he was already 15;
  Birth certificate for the youngest child (make sure that there is a mark that he is a citizen of the Russian Federation);
  Driver's license;
  Technical passport for the car (vehicle registration certificate).
  Additional documents appeared in the process, they are not mandatory if you agree to pay a crazy fine for their absence. It:
  MTPL insurance Kazakh (I already spoke about this above);
  Car inspection card, issued at a Russian checkpoint;
  Sticker "RUS" (on the rear window of a car), Kazakh traffic cops can cling if there are no letters "RUS" on the license plates.
  In addition, the car must have a fire extinguisher, ours, Russian, is also possible. First-aid kit, it is advisable to purchase it in Kazakhstan, since the contents of the Russian version and the Kazakh one are significantly different. Get a fine without a Kazakh first-aid kit is not difficult - believe me.
  In order to facilitate “Myself Life”, I took a smartphone with Yandex navigator. A great helper on the roads of Kazakhstan. Yes, I almost forgot - if the car is not yours, you definitely need a power of attorney to control it.
Speaking of fines - they are here, well, to put it mildly, sky-high. Judge for yourself.
  Penalties on the roads of Kazakhstan
  They can be fined for anything, but more often:
  1. Speeding, outside the city limits you can drive 110 km / h, and in the city no more than 60, exceed 10 - 20 - pay from 3000 to 6000 rubles;
  2. The absence of a diagnostic card on a car will also result in about 3,000 rubles (note: all prices are for 2015, therefore, they may be irrelevant, in reality, fines can be much higher);
  3. Lack of insurance (CTP) will also cost 3000;
  4. “Forgot” to turn on the indicator - give hard-earned 3000 rubles;
  5. Stopping on the sidewalk will not lead to anything good either; you have to fork out for all 6,000;
  6. Not even a fastened seat belt will empty your wallet by 3 thousand Russian rubles.
  This is only a small part of all violations and fines for them. By the way, there are some nuances here - you can pay a traffic cop, half the amount. Of course, this is not legal, but then you will have rights, and there will be no ban on driving a car. Otherwise, they are sent to the nearest city (pay a fine), the driver’s license is taken away, and they will forbid using the car.
  In addition, in Kazakhstan there are quite a lot of video surveillance cameras on the roads.
  even if in any way you can deceive the traffic cop and not pay the fine, nobody will allow you to leave the territory of Kazakhstan. At the border they simply will not be released.
  A few words about customs
  As such, customs no longer exists, in its old version. Inspection of cars, verification of documents and no filling out declarations. This used to be very time consuming. Now much easier and faster. True, if a passenger bus is ahead of you, the check may take twice as long. But this has its advantages - you can eat, go to the toilet and so on. One more I really liked - two lines of cars. And one truck, and the other passenger, that is passenger. Conveniently.
  A few words about the roads
  Roads in Kazakhstan, like ours in Russia, are different. There are ideal ones, but there are those broken by wagons to such an extent that it’s not possible to drive at all. Sometimes I even had to pull to the sidelines more than once. Of course, the autobahn with green signs (motorway) from Schukinsk to Astana is ideal. Speed \u200b\u200bon it can be developed up to 120 km / h. True, on departure you will have to pay 60 tenge.
But on the segment Schukinsk - Borovoy I do not recommend scorching. Coverage is good, but serpentine, the terrain is very mountainous. Therefore, you should not move at a speed of more than 60 km / h. Really life threatening.
  In general, I was pleased with the trip. Maybe we'll go again this year. Kazakhstan is developing, roads are being repaired, new buildings are being built. In general, there is something to see, even in the same Borovoye, not to mention Astana.
  That's how it is - “there is no money, their name is Oleg”

Today, at exactly midnight, all customs posts on the Russian-Kazakh border closed. This is the most important stage in the formation of the Common Economic Space of three states: Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan. The customs border with Belarus actually disappeared last year, and with Kazakhstan until that day customs control remained. The advantages are obvious: increased trade between states and, accordingly, revenues to the budgets.

Despite the suitcase mood, on their last working day at the border between Russia and Kazakhstan, customs officers conduct routine searches. Unless people who also undergo this procedure for the last time, remember how long they used to stand here in seemingly endless lines.

“We drove by car last year, spent four and a half hours on the road, and three on customs,” says Roza Kalmaeva.

But even three hours is not enough for those who know what it is like to be stuck with cargo at customs. Truck driver Oleg Kostyukevich says that every time he approached the border, he tried to be patient.

The time for long checks here has passed. For citizens of the countries participating in the Customs Union, all restrictions on the movement and transportation of goods and goods across the territory of Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus are lifted.

Individuals crossing the borders between these countries no longer have a baggage limit. Also, restrictions on the transport of currency are canceled (although the amount of more than three thousand dollars will still have to be declared).

And freight carriers will check the goods only at the external borders of the Customs Union. At the internal borders, it is now sufficient to provide data on the origin of the cargo. These rules took effect tonight.

At the same time 35 customs points are closing. At the last building on the eve - the atmosphere is solemn, but not festive. Many of those who worked here will not be able to stay at customs.

“30 percent go to other customs authorities. The rest are employed as far as possible, ”said Alexander Sanko, deputy head of the customs clearance department at the Ozinsky customs post.

Customs officers leave, but border guards remain. Now, in special cases, for example, upon receipt of operational information, they will check suspicious vehicles and goods.

“All types of control are entrusted to the border authorities in the absence of other control bodies. That is, we will carry out customs control, and sanitary, and phytosanitary control, ”said Alexander Kostyuchenkov, head of the border department of the FSB of Russia in the Saratov and Samara regions.

With enhanced security measures, the principle of maximum openness of borders for participating countries. The main document of the Customs Union, the Customs Code, entered into force just a year ago, but now experts have noted an increase in trade on the Russian-Kazakh border.

“According to the results of the first half of the year, we are transferring to the federal budget at a faster pace, about 7 billion rubles were sent to the state treasury. This is more than in the year when we did not work in the conditions of the Customs Union, ”said Sergey Ovsyannikov, head of the Saratov Customs.

The plans of the member countries of the Union - the creation on its territory of a single economic space. But for this, it is first necessary to bring to a common denominator customs duties on all groups of goods. Out of several thousand items in the Common Customs Tariff, less than 100 are left to be agreed.

The border of Russia and Kazakhstan: what are the special rules

We had everything in order with the documents, they found nothing forbidden, and there was still no queue. Therefore, we left the Russian territory rather quickly.

The customs officer verified the data in the migration card with the answers to the questions. That is, he asked what was already written there: the purpose of arrival and the exact date of departure.
  At this point, we also had no problems, so we crossed the border quickly enough and went to our final destination. Yes, I forgot about another important point - insurance. It is issued without fail, and this can be done right at the border, in a special kiosk. The cost of such insurance is only about 500 rubles.

State Relations

Today, Russians can visit Kazakhstan without a visa. This is largely due to the fact that in 2010 the agreement on the Common Economic Space was signed. Thanks to this document, citizens of both territories received a number of exemptions in matters of passing control at border points of entry, as well as in the process of staying on neighboring lands.

Privileges can be represented as follows:

  • free entry and exit;
  • visa-free transit;
  • unimpeded movement in two territories;
  • simplified stay in a neighboring state.

Residents of other states that are also part of the economic space, such as Belarus, Armenia, and Kyrgyzstan, can also take advantage of such opportunities. All the listed citizens can be in the designated territories, as well as cross mutual borders on the basis of only a document that can confirm their belonging to one of the listed countries:

  • general passport;
  • diplomat ID cards;
  • passports of a sailor;
  • service passport.

The only requirement for the document - its validity should not end earlier than the trip.

The subtleties of border crossing

Passing the border with Kazakhstan in 2018 has the following features:

  1. No need to put a visa stamp.
  2. Possibility of entry on the basis of an internal Russian passport.
  3. Lack of entry duty.

The procedure itself is as simple as possible: they will put a stamp in your passport at the checkpoint, the same will decorate it when you leave Kazakhstan.

Mandatory attribute - migration card. It is advisable to fill it in advance, because if there is no queue, then the whole way from the exit point to the Kazakh barrier, which opens the way to the country, will take 15-20 minutes. This document will be needed at the Kazakh border. Russian customs officers will have enough of your personal passport.

Based on the migration card, it will be possible to admire the beauties of the unique Kazakh land for three months without having to register with the local migration service. Before joining the EEC, this period was limited to five days.

The language for filling out the migration card can be one of three:

  • russian;
  • kazakh;
  • english.
  • passport;
  • migration card;
  • insurance;
  • registration certificate for the car.

Children must have a birth certificate with them. A vaccination certificate and a passport will also be needed for pets traveling with you. These documents are not included in the list of required documents, but it would be more correct to prepare them.

Driving Algorithm

Crossing the border of Kazakhstan with Russia by car will be faster and easier if you follow some instructions. The first thing a driver should remember is to follow the markings and directions of the border guards.

Russian checkpoint

Passport control always passes the first driver of the vehicle. He needs to present documents - personal and on the car. Further, all passengers should come to the border guard window in turn. Information about those leaving is entered into the database. The traditional question is the purpose of going abroad and the length of stay there.

The following is a check of the car. If there are many things, you may be asked to show their contents. Most often inspect the interior, glove compartment, trunk. Important: it is better not to argue with customs officers, but simply to fulfill their requirements, especially if you do not bring anything prohibited.

After passing all stages of control, pass through the opened barrier and find yourself in a neutral territory. Ahead is the Kazakh border.

Kazakh checkpoint

When approaching a border crossing point, it is also necessary to follow the markings and signs given by border guards. Further, the algorithm of actions looks like this:

  1. In the next window, the driver takes a pass form for the car and migration cards for all passengers, even for children. Provided, of course, that you did not take care of this issue in advance.
  2. Fill out all the forms - without errors and corrections, in print in one of the above languages.
  3. Pass the border control in the same order as at the Russian post - first the driver, then the passengers. Here it will be necessary to present migration cards along with identification cards.

Questions may sound the same - the purpose of entry and the length of stay. It is important that both answers are in line with your true intentions.

After that, at the border of Kazakhstan with Russia, you have to go through customs in your car. This means that personal items are subject to inspection. Please note that it may take a little longer here, since the receiving side does not care what you import into their territory.

Russian-Kazakh border

The need to travel to Kazakhstan may be dictated by work or family circumstances. The republic is also attractive for tourism purposes. Crossing the Kazakh border does not cause great difficulties, but there are some nuances.

Entry rules

Now there are no strict entry rules, as a special customs agreement was signed between Kazakhstan and Russia. Simplified not only the rules of border crossing, but also the order of stay.

More recently, a visa was required, but now only a document proving the identity and citizenship is enough.

Entry into the country is free, money will be needed only for the purchase of some documents that facilitate the movement around the territory (for example, car insurance).

Order

The procedure includes passing through 2 stages: passport and customs control. This is done twice - from the Russian, and then from the Kazakh side.

The process of verification of the passport is carried out visually, the main thing is that the documents are in order. Customs control is needed to cut off too much imported goods and prohibited items.

APPLICATIONS AND CALLS ARE ACCEPTED 24 HOURS AND WITHOUT DAYS OFF.

It is fast and IS FREE!

Then you should fill out a migration card in Russian, Kazakh or English. The form is issued by border guards.

It contains personal data, the purpose of the visit and the planned date of departure. Data on children is also entered there. The card should be kept. It may not be required during the stay, but is mandatory at the exit, where it is taken.

A migration card does not need to be filled in the following cases:

  • have a tourist or guest visa;
  • there are no plans to stay in the country for more than 5 days;
  • transit transit;
  • a passport is registered in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the republic;
  • have citizenship or residence permit.

If circumstances have changed, the card can be issued within 10 days. You can stay in the country without additional documents for no more than 5 days, if you apply for a migration card, then 30 days, and for a stay of 3 months, temporary registration is required.

After presenting the documents, filling out the card and passing through customs, a stamp is placed in the passport allowing entry into the territory of Kazakhstan.

By train

If you are traveling to Kazakhstan by rail, you just need to buy a ticket to the desired city and check if the validity of the general passport expires in the near future (for example, the 20th anniversary or the 45th anniversary is suitable).

Russian and Kazakh border guards themselves will do the necessary passport and customs measures in the car.

When crossing the border with Kazakhstan by train, it should be remembered that the border posts are not on the border itself.

For example, on the way from Kurgan, the last border post from Russia is the Petukhovo station, and the first from Kazakhstan is the city of Petropavlovsk.

Therefore, it is necessary to get at least to Petropavlovsk. If you get off earlier without meeting the border control, it turns out that the person was illegally in the country.

By car

When traveling by car, it is necessary to check the availability of all necessary documents not only for the driver and passengers, but also for the car, which should be equipped with a fire extinguisher and a first-aid kit. You will need a pass for passing inspection. If you enter by someone else's car, you need to have a power of attorney from the owner.

Passport and customs zones at automobile checkpoints are not divided. And while passengers present their passports, the driver can pass a car check.

In the process of passing the checkpoints, coupons with the number of people in the car are issued and picked up.

This is done twice - at the Russian and Kazakh points. The number between these checkpoints should be the same so that no one “gets lost” and “adds” along the road, since the neutral band is usually a couple of kilometers.

The migration card is filled at the entrance to the Kazakh checkpoint. Having successfully passed the checkpoint, you should immediately arrange car insurance at the entrance.

Its cost is a couple of hundred rubles. If a check on the road shows that there is no insurance, you will have to pay a fine of about 3,000 rubles. translated into Russian currency.

By truck

Truck entry requires a large number of documents. Especially if it is a car loaded with goods, because it is already considered commercial traffic. It is advisable to check in advance whether all requirements are met.

You will need a passport and driver's license of the corresponding category, a waybill, insurance, technical passport of the car.

If loaded, then the documents for the goods. It is advisable to list the goods individually on an additional sheet. Screening at the border with Kazakhstan is selective. They may not check, thanks to the concluded Customs Union.

In any case, it will be necessary to fill out a cargo customs declaration at the border. They may require a license if the carrying capacity is above 3000 tons. It is advisable to ensure that there is no overload, you will have to pay a fine for this.

Washers and seals are also checked on tachographs. Other requirements may be made, including outdated and even illegal, so it’s best to be savvy in these matters.

On the way back, Russian border guards can find fault if the tachograph shows 8-12 hours without stopping, because according to the standards the driver should stop and rest.

By plane

It is better and easier to fly to Kazakhstan by plane. You can save not only time, but also money if you know how to buy cheap tickets.

The airport staff will check that the baggage is in compliance with the permitted standards and will advise on emerging issues.

The Russian side puts a stamp on the border crossing in the passport, and the Kazakh side puts its stamp on entry.

The migration card is filled in at the airport upon arrival, in the same way as when crossing the border in any other way, or the travel company presents pre-filled cards to its customers.

With child

Crossing the Kazakh border with a child is enough to present his birth certificate along with his passport, where the child is indicated. A separate migration card is not needed, all the data of the child is entered into the card of the parents.

With a child with one of the parents

If a child under the age of 14 travels with one of the parents, then another will need permission to leave the country, even if the parents are divorced. The document must be notarized.

Permission is not required if the second parent is deprived of parental rights or has died. These situations must be documented.

Required documents

It is enough for everyone entering Kazakhstan to have with them only a general passport or other identity card confirming Russian citizenship:

  • service passport;
  • certificate of diplomat;
  • sailor's passport;
  • birth certificate for a child.

The validity of the document needs to be controlled, since it will be problematic to leave with an expired passport. Big fines can not do.

An international passport is not needed during a normal trip, but it is necessary in cases:

  • a trip to the country for more than 90 days in order to get a job or a residence permit.
  • in the presence of a transit visa, which confirms that the person plans to go to another country and is not going to stay in Kazakhstan for more than 5 days.
  • if the person is not a citizen of Russia.

Customs clearance

If the documents are in order, you must go through a customs inspection: show not only the contents of the car, but also personal items.

Standard questions are asked about the purpose of the visit and the length of stay. The departure date is especially important, although all this is recorded in the migration card. If there are no problems, the whole procedure will take several minutes.

During customs control, the declaration is not filled out. Trucks and cars go through customs separately.

The total amount of imported items in baggage should not exceed 1 thousand dollars. The cost of things is determined "by eye". There are also restrictions on the import of excisable goods: no more than 2 liters of strong alcohol, 5 liters of beer, 1000 cigarettes, etc.

Illegal crossing of the border of Kazakhstan

  • border crossing at a place not equipped with customs control;
  • on forged documents;
  • using documents of third parties.

Responsibility does not occur if negligence (if lost). But if the intentional crossing is proven, the offense is punished with a large fine or prison up to 1 year. A group of persons shall be punished up to 5 years with subsequent expulsion from the country.

Problems can also arise if you take detour routes when leaving Kazakhstan. Information about the intruder will be entered into the database, and this will create problems in the future.

In what cases can refuse

Customs officers have the right to refuse entry:

  • if any documents are missing;
  • if the documents expire, are invalid or damaged;
  • if the entrant has not confirmed the availability of funds sufficient for stay and departure;
  • if reported false information.

Also, border guards can create difficulties when leaving if documents are lost, for example, a migration card, and a certificate is not issued.

Unfortunately, representatives of the Kazakh traffic police do not always act according to the law. Therefore, fines are sometimes extorted for the following "violations":

  • lack of a RUS sticker on the machine;
  • migration card not issued on time (there are 10 days for this);
  • other requirements.

It is advisable to buy a local SIM card so that the mobile Internet is not too expensive.

Motorists are advised to refuel at KazMunaiGas gas stations. This is a Kazakh state company with high-quality gasoline.

Some shopping centers, hotels and gas stations accept Sberbank cards. But all bank cards, including Russian ones, issue only tenge at ATMs.

To get to Kazakhstan is quite easy, but you can get on a variety of vehicles. The main thing to remember about tom, that the new legislation imposes a minimum of requirements on travelers from Russia, so any claim by authorities should be carefully checked for validity.
