General rules

AI Law No. 230-VIII, Article 21: In force since 18 January 2026. A machine-readable mark and a perceivable warning on AI content imitating people or events that never happened.

Rules for specific sectors

News and broadcast media

Mass Media Law No. 93-VIII, Art. 14(7): In force since 18 January 2026. Audiences told that a media product was made with an AI system, as the AI law sets; no wording fixed.

In the API

Send markets=kz on each call to POST /v1/mark: a call that lacks what Kazakhstan's rules need is refused before anything is counted, and each mark gets a receipt of what it carries for each law.

What a mark for Kazakhstan carries, by kind of file
File	Made with AI	A deep fake (`deepfake=true`)
Picture	Watermark and Content Credentials	Watermark, Content Credentials and the visible label
Clip	Watermark and Content Credentials	Watermark, Content Credentials and the visible label
Song	Watermark and Content Credentials	Refused for now: its rules need spoken notices in audio, expected December 2026.
