Vietjet and Qazaq Air have officially announced a strategic partnership to launch a new airline brand, VietjetQazaqstan, at the Kazakhstan–Vietnam Business Roundtable. The event was held in the presence of Vietnamese General Secretary To Lam as part of his state visit to the Republic of Kazakhstan.

During the event, Vietnam’s Ministry of Finance granted a Foreign Investment Registration Certificate to Aviation Holdings, a subsidiary of Vietjet, authorizing its acquisition of a strategic equity stake in Qazaq Air.

This move marks a key milestone in Vietjet’s international expansion strategy and aims to deepen bilateral ties between Vietnam and Kazakhstan across aviation, economic, and cultural domains, while opening a new chapter for the aviation industry in Central Asia.


Under this partnership, the two parties will jointly develop and operate VietjetQazaqstan, building on the existing Qazaq Air platform. As a new-age low-cost airline, VietjetQazaqstan is expected to become a strategic air bridge connecting Kazakhstan with Vietnam, Southeast Asia, and global aviation hubs. The airline will meet the growing travel demand in Kazakhstan while boosting cross-border tourism, trade, and logistics throughout Asia. It also aims to support local socio-economic growth through the creation of thousands of high-quality jobs.

VietjetQazaqstan is set to operate a fleet of at least 20 Boeing 737 aircraft, enabling a strong expansion of its domestic and international route network. The airline will adopt modern operating models, digital management systems, and advanced training programs for its workforce, with ongoing technical and operational support from Vietjet.

Its investment in Kazakhstan underscores the pioneering role of a Vietnamese corporation in fostering multilateral cooperation, transferring technology, supporting human resource development, modernizing infrastructure, and enhancing the competitiveness of the regional aviation industry.

This collaborative model not only delivers strong economic values but also serves national interests, strengthens regional connectivity, and contributes to shared prosperity./.
