Shymkent airport has introduced the possibility to present a digital ID card via the eGov Mobile application to confirm personal data. Earlier such service became available in Nur-Sultan, Almaty and Aktobe airports.

In order to use digital identity card at the airport, a user authorized in eGov mobile, has to enter the service "Digital Documents" and select an identity card from the list. At the airport check-in desk as well as at the pre-flight security check, it is necessary to show the smartphone screen with the QR code generated by the service.

The opportunity to use digital identity card on domestic flights appeared in Kazakhstan due to the joint efforts to integrate the systems of the Ministry of Industry and Infrastructure Development, the Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation and Aerospace Industry, JSC "Aviation Administration of Kazakhstan", airlines and airports of the Republic of Kazakhstan and JSC "National Information Technology".

The digital document service is in a pilot mode, with flights using digital documents available only between the cities of Nur-Sultan, Almaty, Aktobe and Shymkent. Passengers planning to use the service at the aforementioned airports during the pilot project are advised to bring their original ID card as well.
