Әділет — On the Special Status of Almaty

What this document covers

This law establishes the basis for Almaty’s special status and the city’s powers. It helps explain the context for local requirements and the relationship between city regulation and national legislation.

What matters to a driver

A law’s title alone cannot establish a driver’s obligation in a specific situation. The relevant power must be considered alongside the local decision, its effective date and vehicle requirements.

Checking its applicability
