Kazakhstan

The Central Asian market where Pakistan now matches India

Kazakhstan bought US$197 million of goods from Pakistan in 2025, 233% more than in 2020. India sold US$197 million, about 1.0 times as much. On Kazakhstan's own 2025 figures, Pakistan supplies about 0.08% of its imports and India about 0.78%.

Rice (US$114 million) leads, followed by mangoes and dates, sesame, kinnow, bananas, potatoes and fresh beef, all ahead of India. Pakistan's rice shipments are far larger than Kazakhstan's own rice import records, so some of it is likely moving on to neighbouring countries.
