Fully automated algorithmic decisions: notice that an algorithm was used, its key factors and review by a specialist (Kazakhstan Digital Code Art. 43)
Kazakhstan's Digital Code (No. 255-VIII, in force 2026-07-11) treats as an algorithmic system any digital system that takes or influences decisions by automated data processing, including AI systems (Art. 43(1)); decisions made with them must not discriminate (Art. 43(2)). A fully automated decision is one taken without a human assessing the circumstances or approving the result, in cases provided by law or agreement (Art. 43(3)). The person concerned may, in the cases and manner set by legislation, be told that an algorithmic system was used, receive an explanation of the key factors and criteria behind the decision without disclosure of the algorithm, source code or protected secrets, and demand review of the decision with an authorised specialist where it has legal consequences or may affect their rights (Art. 43(4)). Detect a model output that becomes a decision about a person with no notice, key factors and specialist review route, and no human decision.
