Like many other countries, Kazakhstan is obliged to protect human rights, including freedom of religion, according to its internal constitutional rules and its obligations under international treaties.

This essay describes the international instruments influencing religious freedom in Kazakhstan including the reactions of international organizations, reports of international bodies, decisions of international courts or human rights organizations, and state leaders meetings.
