How Long Can I Stay in Uzbekistan?

Border guards check stamp on exit to ensure 30-day period not exceeded

Overstaying or exceeding permitted duration (even briefly) = fine and possible deportation

If travelling overland, arrive at intended border crossing in good time before period expires

Must register with local OVIR within 3 days of arrival (Saturdays/Sundays count)

Hotel staff register guests; private host must register via Emehmon system

Camping/camper van: self-register online via Emehmon within 3 days - pay tourist tax online (need Uzbek debit card)

Authorities require full record of whereabouts upon departure

Unable to account for whereabouts or failure to register = fine per day and possible deportation

Uzbek-British dual nationals: UK can provide very limited assistance - Uzbekistan doesn't recognize dual nationality

Medication: check list of prohibited and restricted medicines

Bring doctor's prescription for prescription medicines and declare on customs form

Some UK non-prescription medicines (e.g. codeine) cause problems - can lead to civil/criminal proceedings if not declared

Travellers at land borders more likely to face medication problems

Drones largely prohibited - must get licence to import and permission to use before arrival

Using drones without permission = fine, prison, equipment confiscation
