Kazakhstan Ratifies Treaty to Recognize Foreign Higher Education Degrees
Kazakhstan has taken a step to ease the recognition of higher education qualifications across borders. President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev signed a law ratifying the Eurasian Regional Convention on the Recognition of Qualifications in Higher Education. The move is expected to simplify procedures for diplomas and degrees in the region.
The new law will streamline how Kazakhstan recognises foreign qualifications in higher education. It also makes it easier for other countries to accept Kazakhstani degrees. This change follows the ratification of the Eurasian Regional Convention, which now includes eight states in Central Asia.
By February 2026, the Convention will be in force for Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan, Armenia, and Georgia. No countries outside this region have joined so far.
The law aims to boost Kazakhstan's international standing. It will also increase mobility for students and professionals. Another key benefit is the expansion of educational exports, allowing Kazakhstani universities to offer services in new markets. The Convention is also set to bring in fresh educational practices and technologies.
The ratification simplifies qualification recognition across eight Central Asian states. Kazakhstani universities can now explore broader opportunities for exporting education. The law also supports the exchange of knowledge and innovation in the region.
