Hoster.KZ

Can a member of the public buy a .kz here?

Yes, on the evidence of its own storefront: a Russian interface, .kz among the namespaces offered, and a KZT price printed with its VAT treatment on 2026-09-29.

What its page printed

Hoster.kz notice on .KZ prices from 1 January 2026: "Стоимость регистрации и продления домена составит 9 580 тг за 1 год с учетом НДС."; "С 1 января 2026 года в Казахстане ставка НДС увеличивается с 12% до 16%". The domain order page (hoster.kz/domains/register/) prints no price before a search.

Read from https://hoster.kz/news/2026-domains.php on 2026-09-29. A storefront read establishes the language, the currency and the figure the page printed that day. It does not establish support quality, uptime or what a renewal will cost next year.

How the Kazakhstan storefronts were read

KazNIC's list of 18 operational registrars was read at nic.kz (English version) and ten of them were opened in a real browser; no page was blocked. Only Hoster.KZ states a .kz price with tax treatment, 9 580 тг per year for registration and renewal "с учетом НДС", printed in its notice on 2026 prices rather than a price table. PS.kz prints 9 590 тг without tax wording; MEGAHOST, Unihost, Host24 and reg.mail.kz show prices only after a search; iD Host's domain page returned 404 and CyberAge 405. R01 and Webnames are Russian storefronts with no .kz figure. On 2026-10-14 the remaining 8 registrars on KazNIC's list that publish a website were opened, so every registrar on the list with a published website has now been tried: 6 were read, 2 could not be, and 0 more print a comparable .kz price.
