Tengrinews reports that starting from June 8 citizens of Kazakhstan and foreigners will no longer be required to present vaccination passports or negative PCR tests when crossing the national border. 

The Interdepartmental Commission on the non-proliferation of coronavirus made the decision after taking into account the stabilization of the epidemiological situation in the country and the world.

Incoming travellers will not be mandated to carry any documentation concerning vaccination or revaccination against COVID-19 (passport or certificate of vaccination against COVID-19).

The Interdepartmental Commission also lifted the ban on the operation of 12 temporarily closed border checkpoints in seven regions of the country.

According to Kazakhstan Today, as of June 7, 2022, 10 cases of coronavirus with positive PCR test results have been reported in the last 24 hours in Kazakhstan. 132 patients are being treated -  32 are hospitalized and 94 are outpatients. 5 patients were reported to be in serious condition while none require a ventilator.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, a total of 1,305,798 cases were reported overall.
