Kazakhstan to simplify visa procedures for German citizens

Kazakhstan Foreign Affairs Ministry is planning to simplify the visa issue process for German citizens, German Wave reports. Starting from April 26, Foreign Ministry will cancel the requirement for personal presence of the citizens at the consulates to receive Kazakhstan visas and once again will agree to work with middlemen and agencies. “We will eliminate these barriers. Especially since the vacations season is starting and people would like to visit their families. Starting from April 25 we will be accepting documents from tourist agencies,” said Yryskali Daurenbek, head of the Consular Department at the Kazakh Embassy in Germany. Kazakhstan is hoping that Germany will decide to simplify German visas issue process in return.
