Satellite internet service provided by Starlink officially begins in Kazakhstan.
Starlink Satellite Internet Now Available in Kazakhstan
As of August 13, 2025, Starlink satellite internet service has officially launched in Kazakhstan, marking a significant step towards expanding digital access across the country. This move follows an agreement between Starlink and Kazakhstan’s Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation, and Aerospace Industry, which ensures compliance with local laws [1][4].
The service, operated by SpaceX, aims to provide high-speed, low-latency satellite internet, particularly in remote and hard-to-reach areas. This will support regional digitalization, education, business, and cloud services [2][3][5].
Before the official launch, Starlink conducted successful pilot projects in rural schools during 2023–2024, demonstrating its technical readiness for large-scale use [2][3]. IEC Telecom Group, a global Starlink distributor with a strong presence in Kazakhstan, will provide Starlink solutions and has prepared special tariffs for the country. However, these exact prices are still pending release in autumn 2025 [3][5].
Interested customers are advised to monitor Starlink’s official channels and IEC Telecom Group announcements for further details on tariffs and connection terms [1][2][3][5]. It's important to note that Starlink's technology consists of a network of low-Earth orbit satellites.
While the service is now available in Kazakhstan, specific tariffs and detailed connection terms are expected to be announced later in 2025 and are not yet published as of August 2025. It's also worth mentioning that Starlink has committed to operating in Kazakhstan in full compliance with the country's legislation.
The Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation and Aerospace Industry reported the availability of Starlink satellite internet in Kazakhstan, and it's expected to expand access to modern digital services for residents nationwide. However, it's not specified whether Starlink will replace existing internet services in Kazakhstan.
No information about the number of Starlink satellites deployed over Kazakhstan was provided in the current paragraph. For more details on Starlink's tariffs in Kazakhstan, interested individuals can visit the official SpaceX website [5].
