Discover Uzbekistan Without a Visa — Plan Your Silk Road Journey with Great World Tours

Great news for Indian travelers! Uzbekistan has announced a 30-day visa-free regime for Indian citizens, making it easier than ever to explore one of Central Asia’s most fascinating destinations.

The announcement was made by Uzbekistan President Shavkat Mirziyoyev on August 30, 2026, during Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s state visit to Uzbekistan. The new policy is designed to strengthen tourism, business exchanges and people-to-people connections between India and Uzbekistan.

For Indian travelers dreaming of exploring the legendary cities of Tashkent, Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva, this is an exciting new opportunity.

🇺🇿 30 Days Visa-Free for Indian Travelers

Under the announced new arrangement, Indian passport holders will be able to visit Uzbekistan for up to 30 days without obtaining a visa.

The new visa-free policy is expected to significantly increase travel between India and Uzbekistan and further strengthen the growing tourism relationship between the two countries. Uzbekistan and India have also signed a Tourism Cooperation Programme for 2026–2028, focused on increasing tourist exchanges and developing new tourism routes and projects.

Important: As this is a newly announced policy, travelers should confirm the effective date and current entry requirements before departure.

✈️ Better Connectivity Between India and Uzbekistan

Travel between India and Uzbekistan is also becoming increasingly convenient.

The two countries are currently connected by 14 direct flights per week, providing Indian travelers with more opportunities to reach Uzbekistan.

With visa requirements becoming easier and air connectivity continuing to develop, Uzbekistan is emerging as an attractive destination for Indian leisure travelers, families, groups, honeymooners, photographers, adventure travelers and business visitors.
