Starlink satellite internet officially launched in Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan is entering a new phase of digital development. A significant agreement has been signed between the country's Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation and Aerospace Industry and the Starlink project of SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk. According to this agreement, starting from the third quarter of 2025, citizens of Kazakhstan will have the opportunity to officially purchase and fully legally use Starlink satellite terminals.

Until now, Starlink has been used in the republic mainly in a test mode, to provide Internet access to some schools, but has not been officially opened to the general public. As a result of the new agreement, remote villages, medical institutions, mobile brigades and infrastructure facilities, in particular, areas where the installation of fiber-optic Internet is difficult or economically unprofitable, will also enjoy high-quality and fast communication.

According to information, to connect to the Starlink service, users will need special terminals - a satellite antenna and a receiving device. The ministry said that the terms of service are still under discussion, but once all technical and legal issues are resolved, satellite Internet will be available to citizens legally and easily.

Starlink is one of the most innovative Internet projects in the world. The main goal of this global initiative, launched by SpaceX in 2015, is to provide high-speed Internet to any remote, inaccessible or unconnected areas of the Earth. As part of the project, thousands of small satellites were launched into space, through which users will be connected to the Internet.

The full launch of Starlink in Kazakhstan will create great potential for the country's infrastructure and the education, medical, and business sectors. Now even remote villages that have not had access to communications for many years will enter the world of modern technologies. Experts believe that this will be a major step towards improving the quality of life of the population, increasing the availability of public services in electronic format, and developing innovations.

So, from 2025, a new era will begin in Kazakhstan, when information will be distributed in a modern and fast way. Connection to the Starlink global system will give a new impetus to the country's digital development!
