Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Which countries are visa-exempt to enter Uzbekistan?

One thing that all visa policies include is a list of visa-exempt countries. Uzbekistan has one too. As a result, the citizens of certain countries are allowed to enter Uzbekistan without a visa. All they need is a passport. Of course, the period which they can spend in Uzbekistan differs depending on their nationality. That is why there are three categories of visa-free countries for Uzbekistan: 30-days stay, 60 days, and the 90-day stay. They are as follows:

90 days – Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Russia, and Ukraine
60 days – only Kyrgyzstan
30 days – Israel, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Tajikistan, and Turkey.

What about the citizens of other countries?

Unfortunately, the list is limited for now, but there is good news as well. As of July 2018, Uzbekistan decided to adopt the electronic visa system.
