Under the Uzbekistan–China mutual visa-exemption Agreement (in force since 1 June 2025), citizens of both countries can travel visa-free for up to 30 days per visit — so no visa is needed for a short tourism or business visit. The exemption does not apply to Hong Kong and Macao SAR passports.
Each entry and stay must not exceed 30 days, and total visa-free stay must not exceed 90 days in any 180-day period. If you need to stay longer than 30 days, you must apply for a visa in advance.
You enter visa-free on arrival. Register your place of stay within three working days — hotels do this automatically; a private host registers you on my.gov.uz. Keep the registration slip until you leave.
