 Uzbekistan to simplify entry for Azerbaijani citizens

Uzbekistan plans to allow citizens of Azerbaijan, Russia and Kazakhstan to enter the country with an internal passport or ID card, AzVision.az informs, citing Report news agency.

This is in line with the decree of the country's President Shavkat Mirziyoyev "On measures to increase the role and importance of tourism in the economy by dramatically increasing the flow of tourists and accelerating the expansion of the volume of tourist services in 2025-2026."

According to the document, the initiative is aimed at simplifying travel, developing tourism, business and humanitarian contacts. In order to increase the flow of tourists to the regions of the country, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Uzbekistan has been instructed to begin negotiations [with the relevant departments of these three countries] within three months and, based on their results, submit its proposals (to the government).

The proposals concern the introduction of a regime for entry into the territory of the republic for up to 30 days for citizens of the Russian Federation, Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan with an internal document or ID card, including for citizens under 16 years of age - with a "kinder passport."

There is a visa-free regime between the countries for up to 60 days, but a foreign passport is required upon entry.
