How to get TAJIKISTAN TOURIST VISA.

 

As regards the tourist visa, some changes and facilities have been introduced.

 In particular::

- for citizens of the European Union it is now possible to obtain a tourist visa directly at the airport upon arrival in the country.

 - for tourist visas of less than 30 days, registration with the competent Department of the Tajik Ministry of the Interior is no longer required. The obligation for other types of visas remains and must be carried out within three days of arrival in the country.


It is logical that most tourists arrive by land as flights to Tajikistan are quite expensive and it is preferable to land in neighboring countries such as Kyrgyzstan, where the low cost Turkish company offers excellent fares and among other things, the the only country in central Asia where a visa is not required.

So for those arriving by land it is mandatory to have a visa in advance.

For those who do not travel in a hurry like me it is logical to get it in one of the neighboring countries thus saving a lot of money.

For those like me who want to get it before leaving, you need to contact one of the three embassies between that of Belgium, Germany and Austria:
