How to get a temporary residence permit in Kazakhstan
A temporary residence permit in Kazakhstan (TRP) allows a foreign citizen to live in the country legally for longer than a visa or visa-free stay permits. The SSS Consult migration center in Almaty helps you obtain a TRP without unnecessary trips between offices: we prepare the package, check every paper and manage the application until the decision.
Obtaining a TRP depends on the grounds. Foreigners apply for the permit for work, business, study, medical treatment or family reasons. Each ground has its own list of documents and its own requirements, so a lawyer first determines which option suits you.
Who needs a temporary residence permit
- foreign specialists working for a Kazakhstan company;
- entrepreneurs and business founders in Kazakhstan;
- students of Kazakhstan universities;
- relatives of citizens of Kazakhstan (family reunification is covered on a separate page).
Common mistakes when applying
Applications are most often returned because of wrongly chosen grounds, expired certificates, errors in the passport translation or an incomplete package. Another common problem is applying at the last moment, when the permitted period of stay is almost over. We check the dates in advance and tell you when to start preparing.
