Very roughly, it starts about 100 kilometers above the Earth, but there is still part of the Earth's atmosphere even at this altitude. The atmosphere just gets less and less dense, and at these altitudes, the 'scale height' is several hundred kilometers, so that means the continued decrese in the atmosphere slows down significantly. Even at 1000 kilometers, there is a trace of the Earth's 'hydrogen cloud' as its outer atmosphere.
