Israel to Kyrgyzstan visa requirements

Israeli ordinary passport holders can travel to Kyrgyzstan visa-free for tourism. You may stay up to 30 calendar days within any 60-day period without a visa. No advance application, eVisa, or visa-on-arrival is needed for short tourist stays. Kyrgyzstan grants Israel a unilateral visa-free regime for ordinary passport holders. As of the Cabinet of Ministers Resolution No. 855 (effective end of December 2025), the visa-free stay for Israel and 54 other countries is up to 30 calendar days within a 60-day period from the date of entry (previously 60 days within 120 days). For tourism and short visits, Israeli travelers simply need a passport valid with adequate remaining validity and may enter without any prior visa. If you plan to stay longer than 30 days, work, study, or reside, you must obtain an eVisa via the official portal (evisa.e-gov.kg) or a consular visa. Foreigners staying more than a defined short period should be aware of registration obligations with local authorities. This route is not affected by Schengen or ETIAS rules, as Kyrgyzstan is in Central Asia and not part of the Schengen area.
