- Kazakhstan‘s Ministry of Trade and Integration reported a $160 billion domestic trade turnover and $41 billion in non-oil exports for 2025.
- The Ministry has shifted from a regulatory role to an active growth driver, backing a portfolio of 1,500 investment projects with distribution guarantees.
- 2026 targets focus on exporting higher value-added goods and digitalizing trade, leveraging deepening ties within the BRICS economic network.
Kazakhstan is leveraging robust 2025 trade momentum to fundamentally reshape its economy, as detailed in a recent Ministry review led by Deputy Prime Minister Serik Zhumangarin. According to a review of Kazakhstan’s 2025 trade numbers, the nation recorded $160 billion in domestic turnover and a significant $41 billion in non-oil exports. Consequently, this strong performance provides a foundation for an ambitious 2026 roadmap aimed at boosting domestic production and high-value exports.
Minister Zhumangarin stated a clear intention for the Ministry to become an active growth driver, declaring, “Our aim is not only to maintain current momentum but to elevate the trade system to a higher level of efficiency and competitiveness.” Accordingly, the ministry has assembled a preliminary portfolio of 1,500 projects in agriculture and manufacturing, offering distribution guarantees for their output. This direct strategy aims to bridge the traditional gap between Kazakhstan domestic production and viable market outlets.
Meanwhile, the 2026 plan explicitly prioritizes higher value-added goods over raw material volumes. This strategic pivot aligns Kazakhstan’s export expansion with the economic corridors being developed by the BRICS bloc, where key trade partners China and Russia are members. The nation’s 3.7% growth in services exports to $12.3 billion further demonstrates an economy diversifying beyond hydrocarbons. Therefore, Kazakhstan trade growth is positioning the country as a more integral partner in non-Western supply chains.
