Do I need a visa for Austria from Uzbekistan?
Discover visa requirements for your trip
Uzbek citizens need a Schengen short-stay (Type C) visa to visit Austria as tourists.
Uzbek passport holders are not Schengen visa-exempt. A tourist trip to Austria of up to 90 days within any 180-day period requires a Type C visa, which must be arranged from Uzbekistan before departure.
Do you need a visa?
Yes. An Uzbek national must obtain a short-stay Schengen visa before travelling to Austria. It allows a tourist stay of up to 90 days per 180-day period throughout the Schengen area. Austria must be your main destination or first point of entry.
How and where to apply
Applications are lodged with the competent Austrian mission or its external provider (VFS Global), usually in Tashkent. You book an appointment, complete the Schengen form and attend in person so your biometric data can be captured.
Documents and fees
The file includes a valid passport, a recent photo, flight and accommodation bookings, proof of sufficient funds, and travel medical insurance covering at least €30,000. The fee is usually €90 for an adult; check the exact amount on the official website.
Processing and tips
Processing normally takes 15 to 45 days. Apply as early as six months before travel and no later than 15 days before departure, keeping your bookings, insurance and requested stay consistent.
Common mistakes
Refusals often stem from inadequate insurance, weak proof of funds, or an incorrectly identified main destination. Do not apply through a country you will only transit — file with Austria if it is your primary destination.
