Questions

Uzbekistan visa FAQ

Does Uzbekistan ask for a flight reservation for an e-visa?

The embassy's e-visa notice does not list a flight booking. You still need firm dates so that your entry falls within the visa validity, and carrying a return itinerary is prudent when you fly.

Do I need a hotel booking for an Uzbekistan e-visa?

It is not mentioned as a requirement in the notice we read. Have your accommodation address available for the application form and on arrival.

When should I book flights to Uzbekistan?

The e-visa normally takes two working days, so the risk in booking is small. If your dates are not final, a held reservation lets you fix them after the visa arrives.

How long can I stay in Uzbekistan on the e-visa?

A single stay of up to 30 days. The e-visa must be used within 90 days of the date it was issued.
