What do I need to know before moving to Kazakhstan?

Answer this Question

When we asked people what advice they would give someone preparing to move to Kazakhstan, they said...

"Kazakhstan is a large, diverse country with a rich cultural heritage. Expats should be aware that the official language is Kazakh, although Russian is widely spoken. It is important to research the local customs and etiquette before moving to Kazakhstan, as there are certain cultural norms that should be respected. Expats should also be aware that the cost of living in Kazakhstan is generally lower than in many other countries, although the cost of rent and utilities can be quite high in the larger cities. Additionally, expats should be aware that the climate in Kazakhstan can be extreme, with hot summers and cold winters. Finally, expats should make sure to obtain the necessary visas and permits before moving to Kazakhstan," said a member in Kazakhstan.
