Kazakhstan has approved a procedure for the centralized collection and transfer of data on passengers of all types of transport - air, rail and sea. The new system is aimed at enhancing security and prompt access to information.
Carriers are required to transfer passenger information to authorized government agencies. This applies to both domestic and international routes, including charter and irregular flights.
The list of transferred data includes: full name, date of birth, citizenship, ID or passport number, route, departure date and time, ticket number, boarding and disembarkation points, and contact information.
For air travel, data will be received through automated booking systems integrated with the Ministry of Transport platform. The transfer will occur before the start of the flight.
Railway companies are required to transfer passenger information when issuing a ticket, including electronic and paper forms. The system covers all routes, including suburban ones.
Sea carriers, including river and ferry lines, are also subject to the new requirements. They must provide information about passengers when checking in for a flight or boarding.
The authorized body is the Ministry of Transport of the Republic of Kazakhstan. All data will be sent to a single processing center, which will also be accessible to law enforcement and special government agencies. According to the authorities, this will allow them to quickly respond to threats and conduct inspections if necessary.
Information will be transferred in compliance with the legislation on the protection of personal data. Carriers are required to ensure the technical security of communication channels and storage of information.
The innovation does not imply constant monitoring of each passenger, but creates an infrastructure for targeted verification and analysis of movements when risks arise.
Refusal to provide data may result in the impossibility of issuing a ticket or boarding. The system will be implemented in stages, starting with major transport hubs.
