- Central Asia ↗Keep every hotel registration slip or its e-registration record until you leave Uzbekistan and Tajikistan; border officers can ask for proof of where you slept and fine gaps.
- Central Asia ↗Land borders between Central Asian states open and shut with politics and demarcation deals; confirm the exact post is open to foreigners the week you cross.
- Kyrgyzstan ↗Check entry rules on the official e-visa portal only; many nationalities enter without a visa for a limited stay, others need an e-visa.
- Kyrgyzstan ↗Carry Kyrgyz som in small notes; markets, minibuses and taxis are cash-first, and cards are widely accepted only in Bishkek shops and hotels.
- Kyrgyzstan ↗Most Manas arrivals are at night: message your hotel with your flight number and ask for a driver or a fixed fare before you fly.
Entry rules depend on your passport. Full visa guide
