Thailand to Uzbekistan visa requirements

Thai ordinary passport holders need an e-visa to visit Uzbekistan for tourism. The Uzbekistan e-visa allows a stay of up to 30 days, is valid 90 days from issue, costs USD 20 (single entry), and is issued within about 2 working days. A separate 5-day visa-free option exists ONLY for air transit passengers continuing to a third country, so it does not cover a normal tourist stay. As of 2026, Thailand ordinary passport holders are not granted general visa-free entry to Uzbekistan for tourism. According to the Consulate-General of Uzbekistan in Bangkok, Thailand is among the nationalities eligible for the Uzbekistan electronic visa (e-visa). The tourist e-visa permits a single continuous stay of up to 30 days, remains valid for 90 days from the date of issue, and is typically issued within 2 working days; applicants are advised to apply at least 3 working days before travel. The consular fee is USD 20 for a single-entry e-visa (USD 35 double-entry, USD 50 multiple-entry). The application is fully online at the official portal e-visa.gov.uz, requiring a passport bio-page scan and a digital photo; the approved e-visa is delivered by email as a PDF to be printed and shown at the border. There is a limited 5-day visa-free facility, but it applies only to transit air passengers who hold an onward air ticket to a third country and travel by air on both legs; it is not a tourist entry channel for visiting Uzbekistan itself. Travelers should hold a passport valid for the duration of stay (six months beyond intended stay is recommended) with a blank page. Uzbekistan is not in the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Given there is no confirmed general visa-free tourist channel, the correct verdict for a short tourist visit is e-visa.
