Number Format

Area Code:            3 digits zone code, then 1-2 digits area code
Subscriber Number:    5-6 digits (see note below)
Trunk Prefix:         8
International Prefix: 8 (wait) 10
Kazakhstan's number system considers the lead 3 digits as a zone code, followed by 7 more digits (always a total of 10 digits, exclusive of prefix or country code). The first 1-2 digits are considered the area code, followed by a subscriber number of 5-6 digits.

5 August 2007 - renumbering of area codes

Area codes of the form 3xx were changed to 7xx form (that is, the 3 digits immediately following the trunk prefix domestically or country code internationally). Both old and new area codes were diallable in permissive mode until 5 October 2007.

This follows a 17 June 2006 agreement between Russia and Kazakhstan which specifies the division of numbering ranges:

Range    Nation
-----    ------
+7 3...  Russia
+7 4...  Russia
+7 5...  Russia
+7 6...  Kazakhstan
+7 7...  Kazakhstan
+7 9...  Russia
Source: JSC Kazakhtelecom announcement

JSC Kazakhtelecom announcement, 15 June 2007

Short-form dialling within a zone (oblast) was also modified in this process. Within an area code, the intra-oblast short form to dial the last 7 digits of a national number changed from 8 2 xxxxxxx to 8 7 xxxxxxx.

November 2003 - new area codes announced

From announcement by Kazakhtelecom (posted via ITU, 25 November 2003, document no longer available), new area codes were introduced, followed by 7-digit subscriber numbers. These were presumably introduced in late 2003:

Other Information

Kazakhstan remains under the same numbering plan as Russia, a holdover of the former USSR system (country code 7). There are no current reports about this nation receiving its own country code assignment.

Major carrier is Kazakhtelecom.

Astana Telecom is another carrier.

Regulator is Ministerstvo Transporta i Kommunikacij (Ministry of Transport and Communications) (domestic language; content may be limited).

See Russia section for other details on Kazakhstan numbering.

There is also an October 1994 document on Kazakhstan numbering through the ITU site.
