Uzbekistan and Ukraine share deep post-Soviet ties — an estimated 50,000 Uzbek nationals lived in Ukraine before 2022, primarily in Kyiv and industrial cities. Uzbek students, diaspora members, and business travelers continue to visit. Uzbek health insurance does not cover treatment outside Uzbekistan; a Ukrainian-compliant policy is required for both the visa and every border crossing.
Approximately ~3,000 travelers from Uzbekistan visit Ukraine annually.
Uzbek nationals require a Ukrainian visa. Uzbekistan has historic ties with Ukraine with significant diaspora and business connections — a separate Ukrainian-compliant policy is required for both the visa and border crossing.
