Always required
Valid passport bio-data page scan; passport must be valid at least 3 months beyond the intended stay and contain at least one blank page.
Passport validity of at least 3 months beyond the allowed period of stay is recommended by official and consular sources; some carriers may require 6 months. For e‑visa applications, a clear color scan of the bio-data page is typically uploaded via the e‑visa portal.
Recent color passport-style photograph meeting Uzbekistan e‑visa photo specifications.
Applicants are directed by the official e‑visa portal and embassy guidance to follow specific photo requirements published on e-visa.gov.uz.
Recommended
Basic travel itinerary including intended dates of entry and exit and cities to be visited in Uzbekistan.
The e‑visa form collects intended travel dates and purpose; uploading a simple itinerary or flight booking can help demonstrate plans, though it is not always explicitly required. Travellers are generally advised not to purchase non‑refundable tickets until the e‑visa is approved.
Copy of round-trip or onward flight booking showing entry to and exit from Uzbekistan within the e‑visa validity and permitted stay.
While not always mandatory at application stage, confirmed or provisional flight bookings are commonly requested by consulates and may be checked by airlines and border control on arrival. For 5‑day visa‑free air transit and some conditional visa‑free regimes, confirmed onward tickets are explicitly required; similar proof is prudent for e‑visa holders.
Proof of accommodation for the stay in Uzbekistan (hotel booking, tour voucher, or invitation with address).
Border officials may ask for proof of accommodation, especially for visa‑free and e‑visa travellers; some consular posts also request hotel bookings or invitations when issuing visas. Registration of foreign citizens in Uzbekistan is usually handled by hotels or hosts, so having accommodation details facilitates compliance.
Evidence of sufficient funds to cover stay in Uzbekistan (e.g., recent bank statements, credit card limit, or employer letter).
Uzbek authorities may check that visitors have sufficient financial means; exact thresholds are not formally published, but travellers are advised to carry proof of funds. This is more commonly checked at the border than during e‑visa application, but supporting documents can be requested in case of manual review.
Invitation letter or telex confirmation from an inviting organization or individual in Uzbekistan, where required for certain business or private visits.
For many short‑stay tourist e‑visas, an invitation is not required, but for some business or guest categories, an invitation or MFA telex confirmation is necessary. Embassy guidance for sticker business and guest visas specifies invitations and telex confirmations; similar practice can apply to some e‑visa business applications.
Travel medical insurance covering the entire stay in Uzbekistan, including emergency medical care and repatriation.
Uzbekistan does not currently mandate travel insurance for entry, but many tour operators and consulates strongly recommend it. Some travellers report being asked about insurance at the border; having a policy document available is prudent.
Travel tips
Quick local advice for smoother arrivals and day-to-day travel.
1
Book Afrosiyob (high-speed) trains early using the official Uzbekistan Railways e-ticket site—popular slots between Tashkent, Samarkand, and Bukhara can sell out well ahead of travel dates.
2
Use the official UZRailway Ticket mobile app if that’s easier than the website; save your ticket QR offline (screenshot) so you can show it even with weak mobile signal at the station.
