Travelers from certain countries can enjoy the convenience of transiting through Uzbekistan without a visa for a period of up to five days. To qualify for this visa-free transit, you must travel with Uzbekistan Airways and have your onward ticket ready to show upon landing.
For those requiring a transit visa, which remains valid for three days, it’s essential to arrange this before your trip by applying at an Uzbek embassy or consulate. The application requires the usual tourist visa documents, plus proof of your travel dates, such as an airline or train ticket.
Expect the transit visa process to take around three working days to complete. This streamlined procedure is designed to facilitate your travel plans, ensuring a smooth journey through Uzbekistan.
