Mostly relatives who live in Kyrgyzstan from the 
period of the Soviet Union until now. However, 
few people travel to Kyrgyzstan through the Uzbek 
tourist companies cooperating with the tourist 
companies based in Osh city
Tashkent 
Issyk-Kul lake
Tourism 
1)Tourist companies 
2)People who used to come to Issyk-Kul during the 
Soviet Union and their families
It should also be noted that the marketing activities of both countries should consist of 
information on the specific tourist products, resorts and areas (e.g. Issyk-Kul lake as well its 
resorts, Arstanbap resort etc., Padysha Ata memorial in Ala-Buka etc.) rather than advertisement 
of the countries in general. These are two neighboring countries that used to be part of the Soviet 
Union and the countries does not need to be advertised to each other.
Winter tourism in Kyrgyzstan among the Uzbek tourists is not popular at all. Around 50 visitors 
from Uzbekistan per year come for skiing in Kyrgyzstan. Thus, the potential of this type of 
tourism is not studied.
In general, the number of visitors from Uzbekistan is increasing each year. The State Border 
Service provided the statistics from 2015 to 2018. Full data for 2019 is not yet available. The 
data separates tourism and private visits. However private visits may include tourism activities as 
well according to the findings of the qualitative interviews.

2. Visa 
Up to 60 days Uzbek citizens might be on the territory of Kyrgyzstan without visa; duration of 
free-visa stay of tourists from third countries is dependent on their citizenship as the cost of visa 
itself.
