Making Phone Calls in Kazakhstan

Making telephone calls in Kazakhstan can be a little confusing for the new visitor. Here are some instructions that will, hopefully, make it a little easier.

Local Calls
If you are calling locally how you dial will depend on whether you are using a land line or a cellular phone.
If you are calling a land line from a land line, it is easy. Simply dial the local number (last six digits).
If you are calling a land line from a cell phone, you must dial the prefix: 8 + the city code (7172 for Astana) and then the local number.
If you are calling a cell phone from a land line or another cell phone, you must also dial the prefix: 8 + the cell company code + the number

International calls
If you are calling abroad from Kazakhstan:
Dial for international access (810) + the country code + the regional code (if any) + the local telephone number.
To call Kazakhstan from abroad:
Dial the code for international access + Kazakhstan’s country code (7) + the Kazakhstan city code + the Kazakhstan local telephone number.

Kazakhstan Dialing Codes:
Almaty region: 727, 728
Astana city dial code: 717

Astana Cellular Communications Companies

Kazakhstan cell phone companies operate on a prepaid system. A SIM card can be purchased (GSM network) providing a local cell number. As credit runs out, it can be replenished easily by purchasing more via electronic dispensers throughout the city. They are located mainly in supermarkets, convenience stores and major shopping centers. Credit can also be purchased on scratch cards and loaded onto a cell phone by entering the code. No monthly billing plans exist in Kazakhstan at this time.
