Romania visa for Uzbek citizens

For the tourist visa, Romania’s official sources give a standard fee of €90, and applications are made on evisa.mae.ro. Processing time, as Romania states it: 15 calendar days as a rule; up to 45 days when further checks are needed. Longest stay on the tourist visa: 90 days in any 180-day period in the Schengen area; it cannot be turned into a residence permit.

Romania has 1 mission in Uzbekistan, with its embassy in Tashkent.

In 2025, Romania’s embassy and consulates in Uzbekistan (Tashkent) received 206 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 203. 1.5% of applications were refused. In 2024 it had been 4.2%: the rate fell by 2.7 points. Applications rose by 178% compared with 2024 (74).

For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 16.3% of the applications lodged in Uzbekistan that year, from 4.9% at the consulates of Italy to 32.5% at those of Poland. Romania’s consulates worldwide refused 11.5%. Romania was the 10th 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. Romania only began issuing Schengen visas on 31 March 2024, so its 2024 figures cover part of the year. The figures cover applications lodged in Uzbekistan, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.

Uzbek citizens planning a trip to Romania can compare how foreign ministries rate it: the US State Department rates Romania at Level 1, exercise normal precautions (updated 13 October 2025), the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office does not advise against travel to Romania (updated 18 September 2026) and the German Foreign Office has no travel warning for Romania (updated 20 October 2026). Each ministry writes for its own citizens.
