Background: The Global adult tobacco survey (GATS) is a Global study to monitor tobacco use, and evalu-ate current measures and requisite policies on tobacco control. In this study, the key indicators from GATS Kazakhstan that address six tobacco control policies are assessed. Methods: GATS Kazakhstan was a nationally representative household survey of the adult population aged 15 yr or older (n=4425, 52. 8% females) implemented in 2014, in all regions of Kazakhstan. A multi-stage, geo-graphically clustered sample design was used to obtain the key indicators of tobacco use and tobacco measures in the country. The sampling weights were employed to ensure real national representation. A household and individual questionnaire were administered through electronic devices. Results: The majority of current tobacco users were cigarette smokers 22. 2%. Overall, 19. 0% of adults were exposed to secondhand smoke while at work. One third of smokers made a quit attempt in the last 12 months. Only, 74. 0% of adults believed that breathing other people’ s smoke causes serious illness in non-smokers. Al-most all current smokers (97. 6%) noticed pictorial health warnings on cigarette packages. Over half (58. 0%) of the current smokers had thought about quitting, having seen pictorial warning labels. Exposure to any cigarette advertisement, sponsorship or promotion had been experienced by 25. 7% of adults, with the highest rate of noticing cigarette advertisements being found in stores where cigarettes are sold (14. 0%). Cigarettes were large-ly affordable for the population. Conclusion: The GATS Kazakhstan results identified tobacco use indicators, as well as existing gaps in tobac-co control measures.
