Kazakhstan Travel Adapter Kit | Going In Style

Kazakhstan is located in Central Asia and uses the same adapter plugs as Russia.

The Deluxe Kazakhstan Complete Adaptor Set includes three adapters and ships Priority Mail with tracking.  The Deluxe Kazakhstan Travel Adaptor Set also ships Priority Mail with tracking so you will have your adapters in time for your trip.  

The Standard Kazakhstan Travel Adaptor Kit comes with two grounded adapters.  The two grounded adapters look similar, however one adapter is a bit smaller than the other.

The Basic Kazakhstan Adapter Travel Kit comes with one adapter plug.  If you are not sure whether you will need a grounded or a non grounded plug for your trip to Kazakhstan  you can watch Going In Style's Adapter Video featuring grounded and non grounded plugs.

Adapter plugs allow electrical connections up to 240 volts. An adapter plug does NOT change the current or voltage (this requires a converter) unless your appliance is dual voltage. This adapter may NOT be used with appliances that have grounded plugs; for these you will need a grounded adapter.

Many of our customers find it handy to have multiple adaptors while traveling - either to run several appliances simultaneously or simply as a backup.

Grounded Adapter Plugs

If you are traveling with a grounded United States dual/multi-voltage appliance or using a grounded Transformer you will need to use a grounded adaptor plug. A grounded United States plug has two flat blades and one round pin.

Non-Grounded Adapter Plugs

Going In Style offers non-grounded adapter plugs for use with your voltage converter, transformer, or dual/multi voltage appliance. A non-grounded United States plug has two flat blades.

Be sure to check each individual appliance to see if it is dual voltage.  You can watch Going In Style's video on how to check to see if your appliance is dual voltage.

Computers and Apple Products

If you are traveling overseas with a Toshiba, HP, Lenovo, Asus, laptop or Apple device such as an iPad, chances are you won’t need a voltage converter. Most laptops are multi-voltage and will operate on voltages ranging from 100 to 240 volts. However, computers do need to make safe connections to foreign power systems and a surge protector is recommended and you will still need an adapter to use your plug.

Converter- Changing Current Voltage

Going in Style adapters allow electrical connections up to 240 volts. Adapter plugs DO NOT convert voltage and only change the configuration of the pins. When voltage conversion is needed, use an electricity converter. An electricity converter changes the voltage input into your appliance. The United States electrical appliances operate on a lower current of 110-120 volts AC (Alternating Current). Most of the world operates on 220-240 volts AC. Therefore converter units enable your electronic and non-electronic appliances to run on foreign electricity (220-240 volts) to match the voltage requirements of your 110-120 volt device. Failure to run your appliance with a converter could damage your appliance.

About Kazakhstan

Geography

The Kazakhstan is located in Central Asia, northwest of China; a small portion west of the Ural (Zhayyq) River in eastern-most Europe. The area is four times the size of Texas. The climate is continental, cold winters and hot summers, arid and semiarid.

Currency

Currency in Kazakhstan is the Kazakh Tenge (KZT). Credit cards are generally accepted. Foreign currency and travelers’ cheques can be exchanged at banks.

Staying Connected

Kazakhstan inherited an outdated telecommunications network from the Soviet era requiring modernization. Fixed-line teledensity now roughly 25 per 100 persons; mobile-cellular usage has increased rapidly and the subscriber base now exceeds 100 per 100 persons. When travelling to Kazakhstan, some you can take an international or unlocked cell phone with a prepaid Kazakhstan SIM card. You can also contact your mobile service provider to set up an international calling plan. You will need an adapter to charge your phone. Most cell phone battery rechargers should be multi-voltage, therefore will not require a converter. If the charger says 100-240 volts, 50-60 cycles then your charger in multi-voltage.

Kazakhstan had 65,988 internet hosts and 5.299 million internet users. Internet access is available at internet cafes and in most hotels. When traveling with your laptop or iPad you will need an adapter to charge your device.
