The Uzbekistan Investor Visa program targets foreign entrepreneurs and investors seeking long-term residence in Uzbekistan through substantial investment in the national economy. Eligible applicants must invest in a local business or enterprise according to the minimum threshold set by the government. The visa initially grants up to a 3-year residence, renewable as long as investment is maintained.Main benefits include relatively low application costs and the ability for renewal while maintaining investment, allowing for ongoing residence and business operations in Uzbekistan, as well as visa access for close family members. The program is notable for its transparent investment requirements and accessibility compared to some regional alternatives, though it does not provide direct access to citizenship or permanent residency.The Investor Visa program is a recent addition to Uzbekistan’s efforts to attract foreign direct investment, and is intended for experienced investors looking for emerging market opportunities in Central Asia.
