Ramadan 1448
Ramadan 2027 in Kazakhstan
The expected start date, who decides it, and first-day seresi and iftar times across 2 cities.
How Kazakhstan decides
Kazakhstan follows a pre-calculated lunar calendar, so the start date is set by astronomical calculation rather than a moon sighting.
SAMK releases a religious-holidays calendar in advance rather than relying on local moon sighting each month. Kazakhstan's religious body joined the Organization of Turkic States' joint decision in Samarkand fixing February 19, 2026 as the start of Ramadan 1447.
