Kazakhstan offers a diverse range of cultural and natural attractions, making it an appealing destination for some Romanian travelers. With 11.6 million Romanians traveling abroad annually, there is potential for a segment of this population to explore Kazakhstan's unique landscapes and rich heritage, despite the country's currently modest tourist arrivals.
Kazakhstan is generally considered a relatively safe destination for tourists, including those from Romania. According to the Global Peace Index, Kazakhstan ranks 57th out of 160 countries, while Romania ranks 36th, indicating that Romania is safer overall. In terms of crime statistics, Romania has a lower murder rate (1.3 per 100,000 people) compared to Kazakhstan (3.2 per 100,000). Additionally, the rates of female murders are also lower in Romania (0.8) than in Kazakhstan (1.6). Regarding organized crime, Romania scores slightly better in various categories on the Global Organized Crime Index, although both countries face challenges. For instance, Romania has a score of 4.0 for mafia groups, while Kazakhstan scores 3.5. Overall, while Kazakhstan is relatively safe, tourists from Romania may find it beneficial to remain cautious and informed about their surroundings, as the safety levels differ from their home country.
