Kazakhstan has a digital nomad route for remote workers, the Neo Nomad visa, with an income requirement of around $3,000 per month and validity of up to two years. There's also a separate digital nomad residency for IT professionals with a much longer horizon. Both require your income to come from abroad, not from Kazakh companies. Astana Hub developed the programme, and it's aimed squarely at the tech founders, creative entrepreneurs and innovators who come to Network School. For one cohort, visa-free entry is simpler. If you plan to base yourself in Astana for months, look into this route early, because it takes time. Check current requirements with the MFA before relying on any figure here.
