Poland: visa decisions in Uzbekistan
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 2,360 | 2,054 | 300 | 12.7% | 43.3% |
| 2024 | 2,746 | 1,837 | 903 | 32.2% | 36.1% |
| 2025 | 2,370 | 1,571 | 785 | 32.5% | 14.4% |
In 2025, Poland’s embassy and consulates in Uzbekistan (Tashkent) received 2,370 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 1,571. The refusal rate was 32.5%. That is barely different from 2024 (32.2%). Applications fell by 14% compared with 2024 (2,746).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 16.3% of the applications lodged in Uzbekistan that year. Poland’s consulates worldwide refused 15.8%. Poland was the 8th most applied-for Schengen state in Uzbekistan.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Uzbekistan, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
