2) 2nd category - the passenger flow intensity of 800-1000 passengers and 180-200 units of vehicles, status - international;
3) 3rd category - the passenger flow intensity of 500-800 passengers and 50-180 units of vehicles, the status is bilateral or international.
Checkpoints of categories 1, 2, 3 shall be established at airports, seaports, railway stations, bus stations and highways with heavy traffic, round-the-clock operation depending on the intensity of passenger and traffic flows.
4) 4th category - the passenger flow intensity of up to 500 passengers and up to 100-150 units of vehicles, the status is bilateral or international;
5) 5th category - passenger flow of up to 300 passengers and up to 100 units of vehicles, the status is bilateral.
Checkpoints of categories 4 and 5 shall be created on highways with daytime operation (during daylight hours) at river checkpoints and have international or two-way status depending on the intensity of passenger and traffic flows.
The categorization of checkpoints shall be taken into account when forming units of state control bodies.
Footnote. Paragraph 22 is in the wording of the Decree of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 05.10.2018 No. 618 (shall be enforced upon expiry of ten calendar days after the day its first official publication).6. Checkpoint classification

2) rational use of technical control tools and introduction of new technologies in the procedure of all types of control.
29. Construction projects for checkpoints are coordinated by the state control bodies.
30. The buildings and structures of checkpoints (office premises at airports, seaports, railway stations, bus stations allocated for checkpoints) are required to be provided with material-technical equipment and facilities, the conformity, the nature of the state control and the ongoing processing of passenger documents and vehicles, providing conditions for people crossing the state border, employees of state control bodies.
Footnote. Paragraph 30 is in the wording of the Decree of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 05.10.2018 No. 618 (shall be enforced upon expiry of ten calendar days after the day its first official publication).31.

During reconstruction associated with a change in the passage of roads (movement of road routes), the location of checkpoints is specified and agreed with the competent authorities of the neighboring side.
32. Automobile checkpoints are being built in close proximity to the State Border.
Depending on the terrain conditions of the area, checkpoints can be assigned to the required distance from the state border line.
33. Automobile checkpoints are located directly on the roads by expanding the roadway, taking into account the symmetrical location of the expansion and island placement of checkpoint facilities. In this case, conditions shall be created to exclude the detour of checkpoints by vehicles.

36. Checkpoints have two functional parts:
1) official - in which all types of control are directly carried out;
2) administrative - which serves to accommodate units of state control bodies and ensure their performance.
Both parts are kept apart (separated) from each other and are used independently.
37. In the case when the administrative building of the checkpoint has several floors, the service part with lounges for processing passengers traveling abroad is located on the floor that is closest to the level of the transport platform (exit from vehicles).
38. The service part shall be divided into two parts according to the directions of movement for entry and exit and includes premises where travelling abroad passengers are registered or serviced.
In each part are provided:

43. The parking lots of vehicles traveling overseas at aviation, sea and railway checkpoints shall be established by orders of the heads of the respective transport organizations in agreement with the border control units and customs authorities that control these checkpoints.
At the railway checkpoints, dead-ends are established for parking of railway cars and container platforms for additional inspection by border control and customs authorities.
44. In order to exclude access of unauthorized persons to places of registration of vehicles of foreign passage, parking lots are equipped with a fence. At the same time, at the inspection sites, entrances and exits, overload places and pavilions for in-depth inspection of vehicles, lighting is provided with maximum intensity.
45. Inspection sites for vehicles are located in such a way that all types of control are carried out directly in the traffic lanes, and if necessary, special controls provide the possibility of removing the vehicle from the general flow.
46. Based on the traffic intensity, vehicle registration areas should have the necessary number of control sections designed to service one or more types of vehicles. Each control section consists of one guide island with two control lanes on both sides. On the guide island there are special control pavilions of state control bodies.
47. The width of the guide islands is at least 3 meters and is done in the form of sidewalks along the entire length of the control lanes separated from them by visible borders at least 0.12 - 0.15 meters high.
48. The width of the control lanes is determined on the basis of the type of vehicles for which they are intended to move:
1) cars - 3 - 3.5 meters;
2) trucks and buses - 3.5 meters.
49. Taking into account the transportation of oversized and special cargoes, the outer lanes are provided for 4.5 meters wide for each direction.
50. The number of control sections and lanes is determined depending on the intended traffic.
51. Control pavilions are located on both sides of the guide islands to ensure simultaneous monitoring of vehicles. They provide separate premises for employees of state control authorities.
52. Vehicle registration areas are equipped with a canopy to protect against atmospheric precipitation.
To ensure the passage of oversized cargo, it is necessary to leave the outer lane open.
53. At the checkpoints on the external border of the Customs Union, before entering the inspection site, a transport control post is equipped with weighing equipment and other devices for measuring dimensions.
54. The road communication system at checkpoints is being built taking into account the prospects for the development of a checkpoint and ensuring that the maximum number of vehicles is allowed at peak hours, taking into account the possibility of changing the direction of movement of vehicles.
55. The carriageways are of sufficient width and provide conditions for the realignment of vehicles before entering the territory of a checkpoint.
56. In the area of checkpoints, effective traffic control is provided through the use of horizontal markings, vertical road signs, traffic lights and other signs.
57. Service objects (food points, bank terminals, currency exchange points, post offices, duty-free shops) are located at checkpoints in compliance with the requirements of the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan on issues of regime at checkpoints and customs regime.
58. In order to ensure safety and traffic control at the checkpoints, a system of special obstacles, barriers and other devices is created, which are activated from the control desk of the border control unit. This system is designed to prevent the possibility of unauthorized departure of a vehicle beyond the border crossing point without passing the appropriate types of control.
Depending on the functional purpose, barriers are safety and working. Safety barriers shall be used to block movement at the entrances and exits to the restricted area of checkpoints. Working barriers shall be used to control traffic in the control lanes on the inspection platforms of vehicles. Their dimensions and design are determined in accordance with the width of the carriageway or the lane that they overlap. Barriers shall be equipped with a remote control device from the administrative building and control pavilions of the border service.
59. The above requirements are implemented at the design and construction stage.
