Kazakhstan's AI Year Faces Data Access Gaps in State APIs
This digest was compiled by AI from multiple sources — links to the originals are below.
A test of 19 Kazakh state and quasi-state organizations found that only public procurement and the national goods catalog offer modern API access. Budget execution API data has been missing for six of twenty regions since June 2025, and Samruk-Kazyna suspended new API access indefinitely. Major companies like KTZ, Air Astana, Kazpost, and KEGOC lack public APIs entirely.
Key Facts
- API of the budget execution report from e-Minfin has been missing data for six of twenty regions since June 2025.
- Samruk-Kazyna suspended new user access to its procurement API indefinitely due to technical works.
- KTZ, Air Astana, Kazpost, and KEGOC do not provide open APIs for external developers.
- The Tañba marking system denied API access to an industry association, stating that only a government body has access to analytical data.
API Testing Results
The public procurement portal and the national goods catalog meet modern digital government service standards with documentation, test environment, and developer tools. The e-Minfin budget execution API has lacked data for six of twenty regions since June 2025. The API can return a successful response even when the required data is missing, complicating automated analytics.
Access Restrictions
Samruk-Kazyna suspended new user access to its procurement API indefinitely due to technical works. The suspension prevents developers from planning integrations and businesses from building products around the data source. KTZ, Air Astana, Kazpost, and KEGOC have no open APIs for external developers.
Tañba Data Denial
An industry association requested API access to the Tañba goods marking system for pharmaceutical market analytics. The official response stated that only a government body has access to analytical data and the option is not available to market participants.
