Yes. Holders of a Tajik passport need a visa to enter Afghanistan, obtained in electronic form through an online application submitted before travelling.

The exact list for Afghanistan is not published in a source we can verify. Every short-stay tourist application is nonetheless built on the same core:
Treat this as the common core, not the official list, confirm it with the consular authorities of Afghanistan before you apply.
You will usually need a clear scan of the identity page of your passport, a recent passport photo in the required format and, if the form asks for them, supporting documents for the stay such as an accommodation booking or a return ticket. The fee amount is not confirmed here: it is shown on the official portal at the payment stage, and the Afghan mission can confirm it. A blurred or incomplete file can delay the review of your application.
Before entering any data, ask the Afghan embassy or consulate to confirm the address of the official application portal, so as to rule out websites that imitate government services. Then complete the form with the exact details shown in your passport, upload the requested documents and pay the fees using the payment method offered. Keep the application number and the acknowledgement of receipt: you will need them to track the file and to answer any request for additional information.
An e-visa for Afghanistan is filed entirely online: there is no counter to visit and no file to hand in. The only address that matters is the official portal.
The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Tajikistan but travel on another country's passport, the rule on this page is not yours. Filing usually still happens from your country of residence, at the post competent for it, but the requirement itself comes from your passport.

No verified processing time is published for this route. Apply as early as your travel dates allow, and never book non-refundable travel before the e-visa is granted.
No verified processing time is available, so apply well before your departure date and wait for the decision before buying a non-refundable ticket. Once the visa is granted, print it and keep a copy on your phone, as it may be checked at boarding and again at the entry checkpoint. If the answer is slow to arrive, contact the Afghan mission and quote your application number.



Passport validity, border checks, minors, overstays: the rules common to every trip are gathered on our travel tips page. Formalities before you leave
The most common mistake is using an intermediary website that presents itself as official: such sites add service charges and may pass on your data incorrectly. Another pitfall is confusing the authorised stay of 30 days with the validity of the visa and overstaying as a result. Finally, an error in your passport number or travel dates can block the application or cause problems at boarding, so check everything before submitting.
