.қаз (abbreviation of Kazakh: Қазақстан, romanized: Qazaqstan) is the Internet internationalized country code top-level domain (iccTLD) for Kazakhstan. It is used with web addresses using Cyrillic letters. It was launched in March 2012, when the first site, a test site ("test.qaz") was activated.

Own second level domains are allowed, but there are also the following standardized second-level domains:

* .мем.қаз – public sector organizations
* .бiл.қаз – education institutions
* .ком.қаз – commercial organizations
* .қау.қаз – non-profit organizations and projects
* .қор.қаз – defense
* .бай.қаз – communications enterprises, networks

Some second-level domains have been reserved in a prioritized manner, such as президент.қаз ("prezident.qaz"). Between May 1, 2012 to July 31, 2012, companies and trademark holders could apply for their names.
