Kazakhstan has introduced a pilot project called Digital Nomad Residency, which opens up new opportunities for foreign IT specialists. The program's goal is to attract global IT talent to work and reside permanently in the country, becoming part of its rapidly growing digital economy.

The Digital Nomad Residency program is designed to attract foreign IT professionals. It provides an opportunity to obtain permanent residency in Kazakhstan through a simplified procedure.

Kazakhstan has launched the Digital Nomad Residency program, offering foreign IT specialists the chance to obtain permanent residency via a streamlined process. The initiative aims to draw international IT talent into the country's digital economy.

To participate in the program, candidates submit an application through the Astana Hub portal, providing a passport, resume, portfolio, cover letter, and a certificate of no criminal record. After document verification, the Ministry of Digital Development issues a recommendation confirming the applicant's qualifications. The specialist then applies for a Temporary Residence Permit (RPP) through the eGov.kz portal, with a processing time of 45 days. Upon approval, program participants can travel to Kazakhstan and complete the registration process at a local Citizen Service Center. The project was implemented in collaboration with government agencies and national IT organizations.
