Kazakhstan Advances Digital Trade Integration
Kazakhstan is moving towards a more digital and interconnected trade environment, showcased by the presentation of its CART.IS (Cross-border Assessment of Readiness for Trade Information Systems) analysis results.
Event Overview
The event, held in Astana, gathered representatives from the Ministry of Trade and Integration of the Republic of Kazakhstan, QazTrade JSC, various government agencies, and key partners from the European Union (EU) and the International Trade Centre (ITC). Participants reviewed progress in digitalising trade procedures and explored ways to enhance interagency and cross-border collaboration.
Key Findings of the CART.IS Analysis
- Kazakhstan has made significant progress in digital trade infrastructure.
- Still, 60% of trade-related services require further cross-border integration.
- 52% of electronic services remain unconnected to the national interagency data exchange system.
“Further simplification of trade procedures requires not only digitalisation, but also ensuring architectural compatibility between government agency systems.”
Next Steps
The focus is now on deepening digitalisation efforts and improving system compatibility among government agencies to facilitate smoother trade procedures across borders.
