The 2017 Kazakhstan Premier League was the 26th season of the Kazakhstan Premier League, the highest football league competition in Kazakhstan. Astana are the defending champions having won their third league championship the previous year.

On 23 December 2016, a league format change was announced. The previous system of 22 regular season games followed by 10 games in the championship (top six) or relegation (bottom six) round was discontinued. Instead, the teams played 33 games over three rounds, with at least one home game and one away game against each opponent. These 33 games alone decided the champion, European participants and relegation.{{cite web|url=https://www.sports.kz/news/v-premer-lige-v-2017-godu-syigrayut-12-komand-v-tri-kruga|script-title=ru:В Премьер-Лиге в 2017 году сыграют 12 команд в три круга|trans-title=In the Premier League in 2017 will play 12 teams in three circles|date=23 December 2016|work=sports.kz|language=ru|access-date=10 November 2017}}

Teams

FC Zhetysu and FC Taraz were relegated at the end of the 2016 season, and were replaced by FC Kaisar and FC Altai Semey. However, on 3 February 2017, the Football Federation of Kazakhstan ruled that Altai Semey did not meet the required entry requirements for the Premier League, and ruled that FC Taraz will replace them for the 2017 season.{{cite web|script-title=ru:НовостиСостоялось внеочередное заседание Исполнительного комитета Федерации футбола Казахстана|url=http://www.pflk.kz/rus/news/3833/#league=12|website=pflk.kz|publisher=Professional Football League Kazakhstan|access-date=5 February 2017|language=ru|date=3 February 2017}}
