The tourism industry in Kazakhstan: dynamics, investment and Neo Nomad Visa 04.03.2025
"Tourism should be a sector that gives a new impetus to economic growth. There are places of interest in every region of our country. Therefore, it is necessary to immediately begin work on building the necessary infrastructure, attracting private investors."Kasym-Jomart TokayevPresident of the Republic of KazakhstanAs a result of systematic measures being implemented in the tourism sector in the country, both the number of tourists visiting Kazakhstan and our position in the world ranking are improving significantly. For example, according to the World Economic Forum's Travel and Tourism Development Index, Kazakhstan ranked 52nd out of 119 countries in the list of tourist destinations. In the previous index, Kazakhstan was ranked 66th.Last year, 15.3 million foreign guests visited Kazakhstan for tourism purposes, excluding those who came for work or permanent residence. Of these, 10.4 million people stayed in the country for more than one day and were classified as foreign tourists. According to official statistics, the average length of stay of foreign guests in our country is 4 days. According to the National Bank, tourists from far abroad spend an average of 1,500 US dollars during their visit to Kazakhstan. In 2024, foreign tourists spent more than 1.2 trillion tenge on the territory of our country. It can be observed that the volume of investments in fixed assets in the tourism sector is steadily growing. The volume of investments in the industry for 2019-2024 is as follows:2019 - 502 billion tenge2020 - 629 billion tenge2021 - 593 billion tenge2022 - 513 billion tenge2023 - 787 billion tenge2024 – 947.5 billion tengeIn the period from 2019 to 2024, more than 605 investment projects were implemented in the tourism sector for a total amount of 550 billion tenge, including 87 investment projects successfully completed in 2024.Among the major investment projects, we can highlight the Makhambet hotel in Shymkent (project cost – 4.9 billion tenge), the Keremet Park family park in Atyrau region (3 billion tenge), as well as the Ak-Zhaiyk recreation area in Almaty region (1.8 billion tenge).In addition, last year, on the instructions of Head of State Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, a new type of visa called Neo Nomad was introduced. This visa is intended for modern nomads - foreign tourists who travel and work remotely. When introducing the new visa regime, the international experience of more than 50 countries that have successfully used such programs after the pandemic was taken into account.Foreign tourists who have received a Neo Nomad visa have the opportunity to stay in Kazakhstan for up to a year. During this time, they can work in foreign companies. This is expected to not only allow tourists to get to know the culture and lifestyle of the country better, but also benefit the country's economy. If the visa is introduced and 500 people receive it per year, the economic impact will be approximately 3.6 billion tenge. Foreign citizens using the visa will live in Kazakhstan and spend their money here. However, it will not affect the domestic labor market. This is an important part of the program.In general, the tourism potential of Kazakhstan is being successfully promoted in the international arena. According to The New York Times, Almaty is among the top 52 tourist destinations, and according to Lonely Planet magazine, Kazakhstan is included in the list of the best countries to travel to in 2025. In addition, Conde Nast Traveller Italia included the Shymbulak ski resort in its list of TOP-5 preferred destinations.In addition, CNN Travel recognized Kazakhstan as worthy of a special status, publishing a list of 25 destinations worth traveling to in 2025.

The Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan is a guarantee of unity and harmony 04.03.2025
2025 is a year of special significance for our country in the preservation, development and support of national cultural heritage. This is an important milestone for all our compatriots, as we celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan. This unique public institution plays an important role in strengthening interethnic harmony and uniting different ethnic groups into a single community of the people of Kazakhstan.The Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan has become the main organization in the development of the principle "The people of Kazakhstan are one nation". One of the important regions in this regard is East Kazakhstan. Our region is a vivid example of the prosperity of multi-ethnic culture in conditions of peace and harmony. In 1992, the first House of Friendship in the country was opened in the East region. Since then, East Kazakhstan has been a leading region in the creation of ethnocultural associations and Houses of Friendship.Today, cultural, scientific and other projects of great social importance are being implemented in the House of Friendship. Among them are the first ethno-village, the “Friendship Caravan” project, the Language School, and the Museum of the Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan. These initiatives contribute not only to the promotion of the native culture of different ethnic groups, but also to the formation of an effective platform for interethnic interaction.The House of Friendship of East Kazakhstan plays a special role in strengthening the stability and unity of the people of the region. For more than thirty years, this institution has become a unique center that allows representatives of different ethnic groups to unite for a common goal and work for the good of the country. In recent years, the House of Friendship has become an important platform for young people, local communities, and non-governmental organizations, creating favorable conditions for public meetings, exchanges of views, and the implementation of social and cultural projects.The successful work of public structures in the Assembly is a clear proof of our words. Today, 115 Elders' Councils, 114 Mothers' Councils, the Mediation Center, and the “Assembly Youth” organization are actively operating in the region. These structures are expanding interaction at the local level and contributing to strengthening social stability and harmony.Supporting the good initiatives of youth is one of the priorities of the Houses of Friendship. In 2022, the Youth Coworking Center was opened at the East Kazakhstan Regional House of Friendship. This center has become a platform for civil activists, non-governmental organizations and youth associations to implement creative and social projects.In addition, the Youth Theater of the Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan is operating. It features performances by adolescents from large families and children from orphanages. The “Hospitable Family” project, which has been implemented since 2023, is aimed at adapting children to the Kazakh language environment. This initiative not only provides children with the opportunity to use the Kazakh language in everyday life, but also introduces them to national culture more deeply, and also strengthens interethnic relations.Special attention is paid to the preservation and development of the Kazakh language. Last year, 25 Kazakh language clubs called “Come, Let's Talk” were opened on the basis of 11 language schools in the region. Their goal is to improve the ability to speak fluently in Kazakh. In addition, 74 Kazakh language training centers operate in villages, and in the future it is planned to increase their number to 100.In addition, the “Small School Assembly” project is being implemented in the region. This initiative covers 64 schools in the region and contributes to establishing interethnic dialogue among students. The “School Mediation Service”, launched in 2019, currently operates in 174 schools, helping to peacefully resolve disputes between teenagers and strengthen social unity.In the framework of the 30th anniversary of the Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan, one of the main tasks is to upgrade the material and technical base of Friendship Houses and support ethnocultural associations. Additional funding allocated for raising salaries, holding various events, and improving infrastructure will allow the activities of the Friendship Houses to reach a new level.The role of the Friendship Houses in maintaining stability in the country and forming different ethnic groups as a single nation is unique. Today, it is especially important to form a public identity, promote the ideology of patriotism and respect for ethnic diversity.For 30 years, the Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan has led our country to great achievements, laid the foundation for strengthening interethnic harmony and increasing our well-being. The projects and initiatives implemented on the basis of the Friendship Houses are helping each ethnic group find its place and creating conditions for the development of Kazakhstan as a multicultural, single nation.Nurymbet SAKTAGANOV,Akim of East Kazakhstan RegionSource : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/akimvko/press/news/details/948839

The Ministry of Tourism and Sports of the Republic of Kazakhstan announces the adoption of measures regarding the advertising of online bookmakers 04.03.2025
According to the Law "On Advertising", it is prohibited to advertise bookmakers and totalizators through the mass media. Advertising of bookmakers is allowed only in mass media that are registered with the authorized body and specialize in sports. In addition, advertising of bookmakers and totalizators is not allowed in sports sections or programs on TV channels.In this regard, as a result of the analysis conducted, it was determined that advertising of bookmakers was illegally placed on the website www.nur.kz (Internet Portal Nur LLP). The case was referred to court on this fact, and the Specialized Interdistrict Court for Administrative Offenses of Astana confirmed that the portal violated the law. In February 2025, an appeal was considered, and the original court decision remained unchanged.The Ministry considers this case as a legal precedent and warns that administrative measures will be taken against mass media outlets that have committed such violations. It also continues to monitor the implementation of legislation in the field of advertising and calls on all advertisers to comply with the current requirements.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/tsm/press/news/details/948752
