How to Apply for Tajikistan e-Visa Online: 6-Step Procedure
Each Tajikistan e-Visa application step below matches the live online wizard. You can pause and resume within the same browser session, and you must apply while you are still outside Tajikistan.
-
Step 1: Select Citizenship & Tajikistan e-Visa Type
Begin your Tajikistan e-Visa online application by confirming who you are and how you will travel.
- Select your citizenship (passport nationality) to confirm eligibility on the eligible countries list.
- Pick the purpose — tourism or business. Work, study, and residence need a visa from a Tajik mission.
- Use one form for each traveler, including each child.
Step 1 — citizenship and visa type screen in the online wizard. -
Step 2: Enter Tajikistan Travel Dates
Specify when you plan to enter and leave the Republic of Tajikistan.
- Enter your intended arrival date — apply about two weeks before travel.
- Confirm your planned departure so the stay fits the e-Visa rules: a stay of not more than 60 days inside a 90-day validity.
- Add a single-entry GBAO permit when the route enters the Gorno-Badakhshan Autonomous Region. You enter that region on the date shown on the permit.
Step 2 — travel dates and border point screen in the application wizard. -
Step 3: Upload Tajikistan e-Visa Documents
Fill in traveler details and attach the mandatory identity files.
- Provide passport biodata, personal details and contact information exactly as printed.
- Upload a colour portrait photograph and a passport biodata page scan.
- Follow the photo & passport rules and the full visa requirements.
Check the passport fields
A file that does not match the passport cannot be used at the border. A correction after approval needs a new application. The passport must stay valid for at least six months after the visa you request and for at least six months from your intended entry date, with at least two blank pages.
Step 3 — personal information and document upload screen. -
Step 4: Preview Your Tajikistan e-Visa Application
Review every field and uploaded file before payment.
- Verify passport number, name spelling, travel dates and visa type.
- Confirm uploads are legible and meet the format requirements.
- Save your application reference number — required for payment and tracking.
Step 4 — preview travelers and fees before payment. -
Step 5: Pay the Tajikistan e-Visa Fee Online
Submit the consular fee and any service charge to finalise your application.
- Pay by Visa, Mastercard, or American Express through the secure checkout.
- Tajik missions publish USD 30 for single entry, USD 50 for multiple entry, and USD 20 for the GBAO permit — the total is shown before you pay.
- Processing begins after payment confirmation is received. If you close the card page before payment, the application stays saved and you can pay later.
Step 5 — secure payment screen for the Tajikistan e-Visa fee. -
Step 6: Track Status & Receive the Approved e-Visa
After payment, your application is reviewed. The approved Tajikistan e-Visa is delivered by email.
- Processing commonly takes about three business days from payment confirmation, though some files take longer.
- Print or save the approval for airline check-in and border control.
- Present the e-Visa with your passport at any border point of Tajikistan.
Step 6 — track the Tajikistan e-Visa application status after submission.
Tajikistan e-Visa Entry at Border Points
When you arrive in Tajikistan, present your valid passport and e-Visa approval (printed or digital) to the border officer. e-Visa holders may enter through all border points of the Republic of Tajikistan, including Dushanbe International Airport, Khujand Airport, and the major land crossings with Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Afghanistan listed on the border points page.
- Enter on a date inside the 90-day validity, and not earlier than the date printed on the visa.
- The stay is not more than 60 days. Leave before the stay and the visa expire.
- Carry the GBAO permit if you will enter Gorno-Badakhshan, and use it on the date shown.
- Border officials may ask about your accommodation, return travel and purpose of visit. Final admission is decided by the officer.
You do not need an e-Visa if you stay inside the international transit area. A visa collected at Dushanbe airport is a separate advance approval — this procedure does not issue that airport visa. See visa on arrival.
Tajikistan e-Visa Application Tips
- Apply about two weeks before your intended arrival to allow standard processing time.
- Use the same passport for the application that you will carry when entering Tajikistan.
- Ensure passport scans and photos meet size, format and clarity requirements before uploading.
- Check your spam folder if you do not receive the approval email within the stated timeframe.
- Carry a printed or offline copy of your e-Visa — airlines may request it at departure.
