Which visa does an Uzbek patient need?

Uzbekistan is on the official e-Visa eligible list. The patient applies for the e-Medical visa and each companion for the e-Medical Attendant visa. The Bureau of Immigration says people coming for treatment at recognised or specialised hospitals must hold a medical visa. Their companions should hold a medical attendant visa.

How do you apply?

  • Send your reports for review and wait for a hospital to accept your case.
  • Apply on the official portal at least four days before arrival, within a 120-day window.
  • Upload a photograph and your passport page. The passport needs six months’ validity on the application date and two blank pages.
  • Apply for attendant visas linked to the patient’s application. The portal allows two.
  • Complete the e-Arrival card online within 72 hours before you land.

What if treatment takes longer than planned?

The e-Visa is non-extendable and non-convertible. Ask the specialist for a realistic estimate of the whole stay before you apply, including tests, treatment and early follow-up. Only your specialist can judge this. If plans change after you arrive, speak to the hospital’s international desk and the FRRO promptly.

What should you prepare?

  • Recent reports and imaging, with an English or Russian summary from your doctor.
  • Discharge summaries from earlier treatment.
  • A list of current medicines and doses, with a doctor’s letter.
  • Passport details of attendants for the hospital letter.
