| Reverse description | The reverse presents a cartographic outline of Kazakhstan as a central design element, overlaid with a detailed vignette of the Akorda Presidential Palace as viewed from the banks of the Ishim River, rendered in fine-line intaglio against a cool blue and teal guilloche underprint. The palace's neoclassical façade and its reflection in the river are rendered with precision, evoking the seat of governmental authority in Astana. Denomination numerals and Kazakh-language inscriptions are positioned along the lower margin. |

Kazakhstan prints its own currency at the Almaty facility established in 1997 — one of relatively few Central Asian states to have developed fully domestic banknote production rather than contracting to De La Rue or a comparable European firm. The hybrid substrate, combining paper with a polymer window or polymer layers, reflects a broader post-2010 trend among national printers seeking to add security features without committing to full polymer runs.
TBB#152 is recent enough that secondary market data on varieties, errors, or replacement notes remains sparse.
