Who runs the Kazakh Embassy?

According to the Swedish Foreign Ministry, Kazakhstan is represented by Ambassador Olzhas Suleimenov (credentials presented 14 November 2024). Two honorary consulates – in Gothenburg and Uppsala – support Kazakh citizens outside the capital.

Consular services

The consular section typically handles:

• Kazakh passports and emergency travel documents
• Registration of births, marriages and deaths
• Powers of attorney and notarial acts
• Certificates for pensions abroad
• Citizenship and civil register matters

Documents checklist

Prepare these documents before your appointment. The lists are taken from official Kazakh sources:

Passport of Kazakhstan while staying abroad

• Completed application, submitted to the embassy or consulate
• Your current Kazakh passport if you are exchanging it (for a first passport: the old Soviet passport as proof of citizenship)
• Proof of your situation abroad (permanent residence, study, work, marriage or long-term treatment) – original and copy
• Certificate of non-citizenship from the host country, if it issues one
• Proof of payment of the consular fee
• Processing: up to 90 calendar days from receipt of the documents

Do I need an appointment?

Ask in advance whether your service needs a booked slot.

Do Swedish citizens need a visa for Kazakhstan?

Planning a trip to Kazakhstan? The Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs does not publish other countries’ visa rules, so check the entry requirements with the Kazakh authorities; country-specific advice is available in the travel information of the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs (Sweden Abroad, in Swedish).

Closing days

Like most offices in Sweden, the embassy closes on public holidays – including Epiphany (6 January), Ascension Day and All Saints’ Day. On the Kazakh national day (25 October) the office is usually closed or holds a reception. Many missions also close on their own national and religious holidays – call ahead.

Emergency assistance

For emergencies, the embassy’s number is +46 8 700 51 41. The embassy can help with lost passports, arrests and serious accidents, but it cannot cover costs or interfere with Swedish authorities. In Sweden, the emergency number is 112. Swedish citizens who need help in Kazakhstan should contact the Swedish embassy responsible for the country or the Swedish Foreign Ministry’s 24-hour consular duty service on +46 8 405 50 05; Sweden Abroad lists the local contacts.
