Kazinform History: Editorial Board Meeting
13 aug. 1984
The first Kazakh news agency was established on August 13, 1920, as the Orenburg–Turgai branch of ROSTA (the Russian Telegraph Agency). In 1925, it was renamed KazROSTA, and in 1937, it was placed under the Council of People's Commissars of the Kazakh SSR and became known as KazTAG.
In 2023, Kazinform International News Agency JSC was reorganized through its merger with the President's TV and Radio Complex of the Republic of Kazakhstan (Republican State Enterprise with the Right of Economic Management).
