Following Russia with ".rf", Kazakhstan
received its own domain zone in Cyrillic - ".қ".
So far nothing is known about the rules and the cost of registering domains in this zone.
The cost of the Latin Kazakhstan domain - ".kz" - ranges from 12 to 25 dollars, depending on the registrar.
“Cyrillic is one of the most widely used alphabets on the Internet, and the emergence of another domain that uses Cyrillic writing is extremely useful for the development of the global network as a whole. I would like to hope that the positive experience of the domain registrar. RF will help the Kazakhstan Association of IT companies in launching their own Cyrillic domain, ”said Andrei Kolesnikov, director of the .RU domain coordination center and RF.
There are 10 million speakers of Kazakh in the world, and in Kazakhstan there are more than 4.3 million Internet users.

To me, this is pointless and uncomfortable. For example, in order to manually type the address of such a site, a person will need to set the Kazakh layout, since in the domain there is a specific Kazakh letter "қ", which makes it even more inconvenient.
