FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Specific requirements depend on your citizenship, the purpose of your trip and current migration rules. Below are general answers; we'll map out your exact route during a consultation.

Which visa do I need for a business trip?

Business purposes are covered by category B visas: B1 — for business and professional trips, events, science and culture; B2 — for installation, repair, consulting and audit work; B3 — for business meetings, negotiations and signing contracts. Citizens of a number of countries can enter visa-free for up to 30 days.

Which visa is right for technical specialists?

For installation, commissioning, repair and maintenance of equipment, the B2 visa is usually the right fit. If the specialist will work under an employment contract with a Kazakhstan company, a C3 work visa and a work permit are required.

Can I get a work visa?

Yes. The C3 work visa is issued on the basis of a work permit obtained by the employer, or a document confirming an exemption from it. We support both stages.

Do I need a work permit?

In most cases the employer obtains a permit to hire foreign labor from the akimat (local executive body). There are exceptions: citizens of EAEU countries, heads of branches and representative offices, and certain categories of specialists. We'll check whether an exemption applies in your situation.

How can a foreigner open an LLP?

A foreign national can be the founder of an LLP (TOO). You will need an IIN (individual identification number), the founder's documents and a charter; we can also help you choose premises and a bank. Registration takes a few business days — officially 3 business days.

Can a foreign company open a branch?

Yes, a branch or representative office is registered with the justice authorities. You will need legalized (apostilled) documents of the parent company with notarized translations, and a resolution on establishing the branch and appointing its head.

Which documents are required?

The basic set: a valid passport, photo, application form, invitation letter or proof of the purpose of travel, medical insurance and proof of sufficient funds. Work and business visas also require employer or company documents. We compile the exact list after your consultation.

How long does the process take?

Invitation letter — usually 3–5 business days; consulate processing — 5 to 10 business days; work permit — from 7 business days after filing; LLP (TOO) registration — a few business days. Timelines depend on citizenship, region and the workload of government agencies.

Can everything be done remotely?

We do most of the work without your presence: document preparation, invitation letters and filing applications on behalf of the company. Your personal presence may be required at the consulate for biometrics and for certain registration procedures.

What determines the price?

The visa or service category, urgency, number of applicants and the complexity of the case. Our fee is fixed in the contract before work begins. State duties and consular fees are paid separately at government rates.

What does the money-back guarantee mean?

If your visa is not granted after our full support, we refund the cost of our services. State duties and consular fees are non-refundable. The refund procedure and conditions are set out in the contract and depend on the service category and the reason for refusal.

Can I get a consultation before starting?

Yes. The immigration consultation is held online and costs $50 / 20,000 KZT — the fee is credited towards your service fee if you proceed with us. Describe your situation in the form or messenger — a coordinator will reply within 15 minutes during business hours and arrange a convenient time.
