Portal-absent ordinary passports: advance consular visa
These ordinary passports are neither in the current visa-free schedules nor in the live eVisa selector, so the MFA’s advance consular-visa rule applies.
- The MFA states that foreign citizens need an entry visa unless listed in its visa-free regimes. The official eVisa portal directs a nationality outside its simplified list to the appropriate MFA foreign institution.
- The ordinary consular process requires advance MFA visa confirmation based on an invitation-application. Tashkent-airport issuance is not a general visa-on-arrival route: it also requires an inviting party’s advance confirmation.
- This policy does not convert the separate five-day Uzbekistan Airways transit programme into a nationality-wide visitor status and does not cover work, residence, diplomatic/official, or special-document routes.
