What is a .kz domain and why is it needed?

If a website has an internet address, that's its domain . For example, in the address unihost.kz , the domain is unihost.kz . The .kz indicates that the website is located in Kazakhstan.

The .kz zone is for websites from Kazakhstan.

.kz is our country's national domain. It is used:

  • companies and entrepreneurs from Kazakhstan,
  • government organizations,
  • people who want to show that the site is from Kazakhstan.

Why choose the .kz domain?

  • Trust – users are more likely to visit websites with a Kazakhstani address.
  • Promotion – search engines (Google, Yandex) rank .kz sites better for the Kazakhstani audience.
  • By law , government and some commercial websites are required to use .kz.
  • In popular domains like .com or .ru, short and memorable names are often already taken. But in .kz, you can still register a beautiful and concise address.

Who can register a .kz domain?

A domain can be registered:

  • legal entity (company),
  • individual entrepreneur,
  • individual.

Where should the site be located?

According to the rules, a website with a .kz domain must be hosted on a server located in Kazakhstan. To avoid this, simply use Unihost.kz , where all servers are located in the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Note: If the site is not hosted on a server in Kazakhstan, the registry may suspend the domain.
