Chairman of the Migration Service Committee of Kazakhstan Aslan Atalykov has summarized the body’s work in 2025. He reported that the oldest residents to receive passports this year were born in 1915, according to Polisia.kz.
Centenarians from the Kostanay and Aktobe regions accessed the mobile civil-registration service.
«We provide a mobile civil-registration service. A specialist comes to a person’s home with a computer, camera and styluses for signatures and completes the registration on site. This service is most commonly used by senior citizens. The oldest citizen of Kazakhstan registered this year is a woman born in 1915 who resides in the city of Kostanay, in the Kostanay region. Moreover, there is also her peer born in 1915 in the Aktobe region. These people are 110 years old. May God bless them with good health,» Atalykov said.
