Unlimited data eSIM plans are available for travelers visiting Kazakhstan. Providers such as Firsty, Yoho Mobile, abesteSIM, MicroEsim, Roamify, Truely, and Yesim all offer unlimited data packages. These plans typically allow tethering but include throttling or speed limits – for example, Firsty limits throughput to 256 kbps, while several other operators cap speed at 5 Mbps; some offer 4G or LTE connectivity, and a few also provide 5G access. Prices for these unlimited options range from effectively free on Firsty’s 1‑day plan to about $5.52 for a 30‑day plan on Truely, with occasional higher‑priced options reaching over $400 for extended validity periods. Because of speed throttling, users should consider their data needs and the expected quality of service, and choose a plan that comfortably covers their travel activities.
Kazakhstan's mobile telecommunications landscape is primarily served by the following major Mobile Network Operators (MNOs):
Kcell: A subsidiary of Kazakhtelecom JSC, Kcell offers a comprehensive range of mobile services, including voice, data, and 4G/5G connectivity, with a strong presence across the country.
Beeline Kazakhstan: Part of the VEON Group, Beeline provides extensive mobile voice and data services, focusing on expanding its 4G network infrastructure and offering innovative solutions to its customers.
Tele2 Kazakhstan: A subsidiary of Rostelecom Group, Tele2 focuses on providing affordable mobile voice and data services, catering to cost-conscious consumers with straightforward pricing structures.
Altel: Operating under Altel JSC, Altel offers mobile voice and data services, emphasizing the expansion of its network infrastructure to enhance service quality and coverage.
In addition to these MNOs, Kazakhstan hosts several Mobile Virtual Network Operators (MVNOs), such as Izi and Altel, which provide mobile services by leasing access from major carriers. However, it's important to note that most travel eSIMs rely on the infrastructure of the primary MNOs rather than MVNOs.
Travel eSIM plans in Kazakhstan that include a phone number and SMS service are offered by GlobaleSIM and Roamify. Prices start around $3.00 USD for a 7‑day, 500 MB data allocation and rise to about $105.00 USD for a 365‑day, 20 GB plan, with validity periods ranging from 7 days up to one year Data capacities on the plans range from 500 MB to 20 GB, and most plans support both inbound and outbound voice calls in addition to inbound SMS; Roamify’s 1‑GB “Kazakhstan eSIM’’ also permits outbound SMS and has a foreign dialing code.
The phone numbers provided with these plans use foreign dialing codes: GlobaleSIM offers numbers with the +1 code, while Roamify’s Kazakhstan eSIM uses +33. Because neither +1 nor +33 matches Kazakhstan’s domestic code (+7), the numbers are not local Kazakhstan numbers, although they support standard voice and SMS traffic as indicated.
