Over the years, gambling in Kazakhstan has undergone several transformations. Kazakhstan has witnessed changes in the gambling industry from early Czarist Russia up to 2007 when new laws were passed that banned gambling in most of the regions. Nevertheless, there are legal means to play casino games or bet online. Many of the minimum deposit casinos that are available in Canada, can also be accessed by gamers from Kazakhstan. These offshore betting websites offer low deposit bonuses, casino games, and much more.

Besides, the public perception of this hobby has gradually changed due to different circumstances. These include changes in legislation, the portrayal of gambling in media, and society in general. These factors have defined the current trends of gambling in Kazakhstan.
