About Open Government, Kazakhstan

Open Government (data.egov.kz) is Kazakhstan's official open data portal, publishing datasets released by government ministries, agencies, and regional akimats (administrative bodies). The site provides a searchable catalog of datasets organized by category, including areas such as healthcare, education, transport, finance, agriculture, and public safety, along with information on publishing organizations and government agencies.

The portal offers API documentation and a developer dashboard for accessing data programmatically, along with a public interface for browsing datasets by category or by originating organization. Users can submit requests for new datasets to be published or for existing datasets to be updated (actualized), and the site tracks metadata such as update frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or as needed) and actuality status for each dataset.

The site is intended for developers and members of the public seeking access to Kazakhstani government data, and includes supplementary components such as an Open Budget section, Open Legal Acts, an efficiency evaluation tool, and mobile applications. It is available in Kazakh, Russian, and English, and includes a version for visually impaired users.
