Visa for Spain from Uzbekistan: price, documents and processing time 2026

Yes. An Uzbek passport does not grant visa-free entry to the Schengen area: a Type C short-stay visa is mandatory for any tourist trip to Spain. It allows up to 90 days in any 180-day period and, once issued, lets you move between the other Schengen countries. It is requested when Spain is your sole or primary destination.

Prepare a valid passport (issued within the last 10 years and valid at least 3 months beyond your planned exit), the Schengen application form, a compliant photo, a return flight reservation, proof of accommodation, evidence of funds, and travel medical insurance covering at least €30,000. The visa fee is normally €90 for an adult; the external provider may charge a service fee. Confirm the exact amount at submission.

Uzbek applicants apply to the competent Spanish consulate or its external service provider (for example BLS International or TLScontact) handling Spain's visa intake in Tashkent or the relevant jurisdiction. The exteriores.gob.es website and the consulate indicate the exact official channel. An appointment and biometric enrolment (fingerprints) are required.

• Your application goes to the state that is your main destination. If Spain is where you spend the longest, it handles the file, whatever the entry point.
• With no main destination, the competent state is the one you enter first.
• If Spain has no consulate in Uzbekistan, another Schengen state may act on its behalf under a representation arrangement, or the file goes to the post accredited for your country.

Then the application goes to the post accredited for Uzbekistan, often in a neighbouring capital, or to a state acting on its behalf. Confirm which post is competent with the official source before travelling to a third country to apply, a rejected file at the wrong counter costs the trip and the fee.

The regime follows your nationality, not where you live. If you reside in Uzbekistan 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.

Expect roughly 15 to 45 days of processing; file ahead of time, but no earlier than six months before travel. A complete, consistent file (dates, accommodation, itinerary) with clear proof of funds supports a fast decision. Also check the official source for any health entry requirements that apply to your route.

Do not apply through a Schengen country other than your main destination: Spain must be the state where you stay longest. Avoid insurance below the €30,000 threshold, a passport with insufficient validity, or gaps in your bank statements. Finally, do not buy non-refundable tickets before you hold the visa.
