 Tajik
visas cannot be obtained at the border.
You must obtain a visa in advance of TRAVEL to Tajikistan.
However, visas can be obtained from Tajik embassies in
most of Tajikistan's neighbor states.
Follow the steps on this page to obtain a Tajik visa:
1. Obtain a letter of invitation
You must be invited to Tajikistan by an organisation that is
legally registered with the Ministry of Justice (or the Ministry
of Foreign Affairs). The organisation will prepare a letter
of invitation, which must be ratified by the Ministry of Foreign
Affairs.
If you wish to come to Tajikistan as a tourist, you can apply
for a letter of invitation from the State National TRAVEL Agency,
Sayoh. An online application form is provided. You can use this
letter to apply for a single-entry tourist visa, valid for up
to one month. If necessary, your visa can be extended after
arrival in Tajikistan.

2. Locate your nearest Tajik Embassy
Find your nearest embassy by choosing the country closest to
where you live.
If there is no Tajik embassy in your country, try contacting
the Russian embassy. Russian embassies have handled Tajik visas
since 1991. However, I have received reports recently that this
policy is changing. Some Russian embassies are now refusing
to process visas for Tajikistan. It's still worth asking.
You can also submit your application by post to a Tajik embassy
in a neighboring country.
3. Complete a visa application form
Obtain an application form from your local Tajik or Russian
embassy. You should also ask what the fee is for a single entry
visa, and what methods of payment are acceptable.
4. Submit your visa application
To apply for your visa, take (or post) the following items to
the embassy:
• Your passport
• Your letter of invitation
• A completed visa application form
• Three passport photographs
• The appropriate fee
