Slovakia visa for Uzbek citizens

For the tourist visa, Slovakia’s official sources give a standard fee of €90. Processing time, as Slovakia states it: 15 calendar days from the day the application is accepted; up to 45 days if more checks are needed. Longest stay on the tourist visa: Up to 90 days in any 180-day period across the Schengen area.

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

In 2025, Slovakia’s embassy and consulates in Uzbekistan (Tashkent) received 700 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 648. The refusal rate was 7.3%. The refusal rate rose by 4.2 points from 3.0% in 2024. Applications rose by 38% compared with 2024 (506).

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. Slovakia’s consulates worldwide refused 9.6%. Slovakia was the 9th 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.

Before travelling from Uzbekistan to Slovakia, it helps to know the official travel advice: the US State Department rates Slovakia at Level 1, exercise normal precautions (updated 11 February 2026), the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office does not advise against travel to Slovakia (updated 28 August 2026) and the German Foreign Office has no travel warning for Slovakia (updated 13 October 2026). Each ministry writes for its own citizens.
