Passport and transit notes
- Passport validity
- 2 blank pages; For a Kazakhstan visa, the passport must have at least 2 blank pages and expire no earlier than 3 months after the requested visa expires. Passports with validity-extension marks are not accepted for this route.
- Validity source (opens in a new tab) Validity guide
- Transit
- landside transit: required; Kazakhstan publishes a separate B13 transit visa for travel through its territory, with up to 5 days in one direction. The checked official guidance does not publish a universal airside-only waiver, so airport transit without border control remains itinerary- and carrier-specific.

Why this verdict
Pakistani ordinary passport holders are listed as visa-required in Kazakhstan's current MFA regime table and are not included in the current eGov list of 109 nationalities eligible for a single-entry electronic visa. The ordinary tourist route therefore remains a visa obtained before travel. This guidance covers ordinary-passport short tourism only; other purposes and routes can require a different visa.
