Guide last updated October 5, 2026. Always verify with official sources before travel.

What you need

  • Passport valid for at least 6 months beyond the date of entry
  • No visa, application form, or photo is required in advance
  • Proof of accommodation and a return/onward ticket may be requested at the border
  • Evidence of sufficient funds can be requested, though checks are infrequent for Chinese passport holders under the exemption
  • No biometrics are collected beyond standard border photography at some airports
  • Travel health insurance is recommended but not mandatory

Visa types

  • No visa is required for visa-free entry for tourism or business visits under the China-Uzbekistan mutual visa exemption agreement
  • Stays beyond 30 days, or visits for work/study/residence, require a separate visa or permit applied for in advance through an Uzbek embassy/consulate

Entry conditions

  • Visa-free entry allows stays of up to 30 days for tourism or short business visits
  • No work is permitted on visa-free entry; a separate work visa is required for employment
  • On arrival, present your passport at the immigration counter; migration registration is required within a few days of arrival if staying in private accommodation, though most hotels handle this automatically for guests
  • Extensions beyond 30 days are not normally available for visa-free entrants; travelers needing a longer stay should apply for the appropriate visa category before the 30 days expire, or exit and re-enter after an appropriate interval

Fees & processing time

  • No visa fee applies, since entry is visa-free
  • No processing time, as no advance application is submitted
  • Migration registration, where required, is typically handled free of charge by hotels; independent travelers may need to register at a local migration office, which can take a day

Tips for China travelers

  • Keep your hotel registration slips (or your own registration receipt if staying privately) throughout your trip, as they may be checked on departure
  • Confirm your onward travel plans before arrival, since border officers may ask for proof of return or onward tickets
  • If planning to stay longer than 30 days, arrange the correct visa category in advance rather than relying on an extension
  • Direct flights connect several Chinese cities with Tashkent, making this one of the more convenient Central Asian destinations for short trips
