Do I Need a Visa for Tajikistan?
Yes. US citizens must have a visa to travel to Tajikistan, and the visa must be obtained before arrival. It is very important that your visa is valid for your entire trip since you can be required to exit the country immediately once your visa’s validity expires. As a result, it is advisable to get a visa for a period of stay that is longer than your intended travel dates, in case your travel plans change for any reason or your intended method of departure from the country does not materialize. Visas are issued for single or multiple entries; if you plan to visit another country in the region and then reenter Tajikistan, be sure to get a multiple entry visa. In addition to a visa, you will also need a valid passport that will not expire for at least six months after your trip.
