As the Kazinform state news agency reported, from July 12, 2022, in accordance with the decree of the government of Kazakhstan, the following automobile checkpoints will resume operation:

- across the border with the Russian Federation (Kondybay, Akbalshyk, Kyzyl Zhar, Nayza, Zhezkent, Baitanat, Koyanbay, Orda, Shagan, Karashatau);
- across the border with the Republic of Uzbekistan (Tselinny and Syrdarya).
