Customs clearance in Kazakhstan: what has changed in 2026
In 2026, customs administration in Kazakhstan continues its transition to a digital and more automated format.One of the key tools is the KEDEN information system, which converts customs services and declaration processes into electronic format, reducing paper document flow.
