USA business visa success rate for Kyrgyz citizens (FY2025)

41% of Kyrgyz B1/B2 visitor-visa applications to the United States were approved in FY2025, the US fiscal year that ended on 30 September 2025 — the other 59% were refused. Approval is down from 60.9% in FY2024. The State Department publishes this on an adjusted basis, excluding refusals that were later overcome. It is a nationality-wide outcome across every US post, not a probability for your own case: it takes no account of your finances, employment, ties to Kyrgyzstan, travel history or any previous refusal — which is what the consular officer actually weighs. The estimator below weighs your own finances, ties, travel history and refusal record instead.

Where Kyrgyzstan sits in the official data

Two governments publish visa outcomes broken down by country. Neither predicts an individual decision, but together they show how Kyrgyz applicants fare relative to everyone else, and which of the destinations we cover currently refuses the fewest applications from Kyrgyzstan.

UK business visas — year to March 2026

The UK is the only government that publishes outcomes by nationality and visa type, so it is the one place a business-visa figure for Kyrgyzstan actually exists. 27.1% of Kyrgyz business applications were refused across 1,996 decisions , against 21.4% the year before. That volume makes Kyrgyzstan the 70th-largest source of UK business applicants, of 110 countries with meaningful numbers. Different country, different rules — a reference point, not your odds here.

US visitor visas — FY2025

A 59% adjusted refusal rate places Kyrgyzstan 163rd of 199 nationalities the State Department publishes — a lower refusal rate than 18% of them. The median nationality sits at 31.8%, so Kyrgyzstan is 27.2 points above it.

Schengen short-stay visas — 2025

Across all Schengen consulates in Kyrgyzstan, 11% of short-stay applications were not issued — 52nd of 127 countries with a meaningful application volume, and 4.6 points below the 15.6% median.

Demand and outcome moved together for Kyrgyzstan between 2024 and 2025. Schengen consulates there decided 30,712 short-stay applications, against 28,037 the year before — up 9.5% — while the refusal rate went from 14.3% to 11%. That easing meant roughly 1,025 more applicants were issued a visa than 2024's rate would have produced.

Frequently asked questions

What is the USA business visa refusal rate for Kyrgyz citizens?

59% in FY2025, against 39.1% in FY2024 — meaning 41% of decided cases ended in a visa. Share of Kyrgyzstan B1/B2 visitor-visa cases refused in the US fiscal year ending 30 September 2025, on the State Department's adjusted basis: refusals that were later overcome are removed from both the numerator and the denominator, so the figure is refusals ÷ (issuances + net refusals). It covers visitor visas only and describes the nationality as a whole — it is not a probability for an individual application. Your own case is assessed on its own evidence, so use the estimator on this page rather than the average.

Where does this USA refusal-rate figure come from?

From U.S. Department of State — Adjusted Refusal Rate, B-Visas Only, by Nationality, covering FY2025. We restate the published figure without adjustment and link the source file directly, so you can check it yourself.

What matters most for a USA business visa?

Officers focus on whether your trip is a genuine, short business visit. In practice the single biggest lever is a credible invitation and ties, so make that part of your application as strong and well-documented as possible.

Does a previous visa refusal affect my chances?

Yes. A prior refusal weighs on new applications until its underlying reason is addressed. Find out exactly why you were refused, fix what caused it, and clearly show what is different this time.

Is this a guarantee of approval?

No. GetVisaOdds is an educational planning tool, not legal advice and not a guarantee. Only a consular or immigration officer can decide your application. We show approximate odds and the reasons behind them so you can prepare better.

Is my information private?

Completely. The estimate runs entirely in your browser. Your answers are never sent to a server or stored — there is no sign-up and nothing to leak.
