How an address is written in Kazakhstan
This is the order Kazakhstan's postal service expects. Square brackets mark what you replace.
[Postal code (040900)]
[State]
[City]
[Street address]
[Recipient name]
KAZAKHSTAN
Note the order: the postal code comes first, before the region and street — the reverse of the Western convention.
A postal code is optional in Kazakhstan addresses — mail is deliverable without one, though including it speeds up sorting.
