Digital Kazakhstan: Vehicle inspection document to go online

The diagnostic card for technical inspections is being transformed into a digital format in Kazakhstan. Domestic drivers will no longer be required to carry a physical document verifying their vehicle inspection. Instead, it will be stored within their personal accounts on the e-government mobile application. The preparatory work is currently being carried out by the Kazakh Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure Development together with the National Information Technologies. It is worth noting that in Kazakhstan, digital documents hold equivalent legal status as their paper counterparts.

 “IT specialists are currently conducting technical work and have already developed the service. Its pilot version will be available on the eGov Mobile app, tentatively by September 1 of the current year, following the integration works. According to the project plan, the digital version of the document will be stored within the inspection agencies database, enabling real-time verification of its availability,” said Meruyert Ibrayeva, spokesperson for the Kazakh Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure Development.
