Visiting Uzbekistan: Kosovar citizen → Uzbekistan
You need a visa — apply through an Uzbek embassy
Kosovo passport holders are not on Uzbekistan's visa-free or e-Visa (Appendix 1) lists, so they need an ordinary visa issued by an Uzbek diplomatic mission on the basis of a visa confirmation from the MFA Consular and Legal Department, arranged by an inviting party in Uzbekistan.
The bottom line
- The visa is issued at an Uzbek diplomatic mission on the basis of a visa confirmation obtained by the inviting legal entity or individual in Uzbekistan. Written applications to the MFA are considered within 4 working days.
- Consular fees run from USD 40 (single entry, up to 7 days) to USD 160 (single entry, up to 1 year); a 30-day tourist visa is USD 40. Your passport must be valid at least 3 months longer than the visa.
- You must register your place of stay within three working days of arrival — hotels and other accommodation do this automatically; private hosts register you on my.gov.uz. Keep the registration slip for exit control. Stays not exceeding three working days are exempt.

Where you'll apply
Apply through the Uzbek Embassy or Consular Office accredited for your country: your inviting party in Uzbekistan must first obtain the MFA visa confirmation, then you submit your passport, application form and photos to the mission. Citizens of countries with no Uzbek mission may get a visa on arrival at Tashkent airport once a confirmation (stamp) has been arranged in advance.
