Uzbek citizens πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Ώ Uzbek citizens Β· πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ͺ UAE Β· Tourist / Visitor # UAE tourist / visitor visa success rate for Uzbek citizens In the UK β€” the only government that publishes visa outcomes broken down by both nationality and visa type β€” 68.8% of Uzbek tourist visa applications were approved, down from 69.7% a year earlier, across 10,733 decisions in the year to March 2026. For Uzbek tourist applicants that is the only approval rate on record anywhere. the UAE does not publish tourist decisions by nationality, so no UAE-specific rate exists for Uzbekistan β€” and any site quoting one is estimating. Where Uzbekistan does have published rates, they run at 47.5% on US visitor visas in FY2025 and 83.7% across 61,318 Schengen short-stay decisions in 2025 β€” a wider picture of how Uzbek applications are treated, though neither is a tourist-visa figure. What UAE does document is the decision itself: officers assess whether you are a genuine visitor who will return home on time, and the biggest single lever is return intent. On the money side: No standard applicant funds threshold β€” the sponsor guarantees the stay. Some channels ask for proof of accommodation or a return ticket rather than bank statements. The estimator below weighs your own finances, ties, travel history and refusal record against that. Last reviewed July 2026 per our [editorial standards](https://getvisaodds.com/editorial-standards). Source: [The United Arab Emirates' Government portal (u.ae) ](https://u.ae/en/information-and-services/visa-and-emirates-id/Visa-information/do-you-need-an-entry-permit-or-a-visa-to-enter-the-uae). UAE assesses a tourist visa on whether you are a genuine visitor who will return home on time. As an approximate starting point, this route runs near a 86% base approval for Uzbek citizens β€” your finances, ties and history then push your personal odds up or down. Published approval rates for Uzbekistan run at 47.5% on US visitor visas in FY2025 and 83.7% on Schengen short-stay applications in 2025. [Estimate my personal odds](#estimate) Modelled estimate β€” not official 86% Modelled estimate, not a published statistic β€” no Uzbek-specific rate is published for this route. Derived from UAE sponsor-based tourist visa patterns; see the methodology page for every parameter. Your personal odds can be much higher or lower β€” estimate them below. ## Estimate your personal odds Pre-filled for this route. A few taps and it’s done β€” privately, in your browser. ## Key requirements - A sponsor: airline, hotel, licensed tour operator, or a UAE-resident relative - Passport valid for at least 6 months - Passport-style photo and clean copies of your documents - Return/onward ticket (commonly requested by the sponsor channel) - 30- or 60-day visa option chosen before applying ### Visa fee (cost) Priced by the sponsoring channel (airline, hotel, agency) β€” commonly a few hundred dirhams for a 30–60-day e-visa; multiple entry costs more. ### Money & funds No standard applicant funds threshold β€” the sponsor guarantees the stay. Some channels ask for proof of accommodation or a return ticket rather than bank statements. ### Typical timeline E-visas are typically issued within a few working days once the sponsor submits the application. ## Common refusal reasons - Previous UAE overstay or immigration violation - Passport validity under 6 months or document quality issues - Mismatched personal details between documents - Security or background-check flags - Sponsor-side errors in the application ## Where Uzbekistan sits in the official data Two governments publish visa outcomes broken down by country. Neither predicts an individual decision, but together they show how Uzbek applicants fare relative to everyone else, and which of the destinations we cover currently refuses the fewest applications from Uzbekistan. ### UK tourist visas β€” 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 tourist-visa figure for Uzbekistan actually exists. **31.2%** of Uzbek tourist applications were refused across 10,733 decisions , against 30.3% the year before. That volume makes Uzbekistan the 31st-largest source of UK tourist applicants, of 110 countries with meaningful numbers. Different country, different rules β€” a reference point, not your odds here. ### US visitor visas β€” FY2025 A **52.5%** adjusted refusal rate places Uzbekistan **150th of 199** nationalities the State Department publishes β€” a lower refusal rate than 25% of them. The median nationality sits at 31.8%, so Uzbekistan is 20.7 points above it. ### Schengen short-stay visas β€” 2025 Across all Schengen consulates in Uzbekistan, **16.3%** of short-stay applications were not issued β€” **66th of 127** countries with a meaningful application volume, and 0.7 points above the 15.6% median. |Destination|Refused|Issued|Decided| |-|-|-|-| |Italy|4.9%|95.1%|6,672| |France|13%|87%|11,593| |Germany|21.3%|78.7%|18,101| Among Schengen states, applications lodged in Uzbekistan were refused least often by Italy at 4.9% and most often by Germany at 21.3% β€” a gap of 16.4 points on a like-for-like basis. That gap reflects who applies where as much as how strictly each state decides, so it is a starting point for choosing a main destination, not a ranking of leniency. You must still apply to the state where you will spend the most nights. Demand and outcome moved together for Uzbekistan between 2024 and 2025. Schengen consulates there decided **61,318** short-stay applications, against 60,854 the year before β€” up 0.8% β€” while the refusal rate went from 15.2% to 16.3%. Had 2024's rate held, roughly 663 of the 61,318 applicants refused in 2025 would have been issued a visa instead.

Schengen figures are grouped by the country an application was lodged in, not by passport. ## What actually moves the needle ### Strong ties to home β€” a stable job, family, or property This is the heart of tourist decisions for UAE. Make it concrete and documented rather than assumed. ### Funds that clearly cover the whole trip Officers weigh this alongside everything else β€” gather clear evidence before you apply. ### A specific, time-limited plan with bookings Officers weigh this alongside everything else β€” gather clear evidence before you apply. ### Context for Uzbekistan applicants Published approval rates for Uzbekistan run at 47.5% on US visitor visas in FY2025 and 83.7% on Schengen short-stay applications in 2025. Your personal profile matters far more than any nationality-level pattern, so focus on the levers above. ### Avoid the common pitfall The most frequent reason this route fails is a vague itinerary or thin finances that make your return look uncertain. Address it directly and you remove the biggest doubt. ## Frequently asked questions Is there an official UAE tourist visa success rate for Uzbek citizens? Not one we currently carry. We only print a rate when we hold the publisher's own figure for this nationality and this visa category, and we do not hold one for the UAE tourist visas. The figure shown on this page is a modelled estimate built from published route-level data and your answers β€” we label it as such rather than presenting it as a government statistic. What you can act on is the documented requirement set below, which is what the decision actually turns on. What matters most for a UAE tourist visa? Officers focus on whether you are a genuine visitor who will return home on time. In practice the single biggest lever is return intent, 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 β€” there is no sign-up and nothing to leak. Do I need to show bank statements for a UAE tourist visa? Usually no. UAE tourist visas are sponsor-based β€” the airline, hotel or relative sponsoring you guarantees the stay, so there is no standard personal funds test. How long does a UAE tourist visa take? Typically a few working days after the sponsor applies. Apply at least a week or two before travel to be safe. What are the UAE tourist visa durations? The common options are 30-day and 60-day single- or multiple-entry visas, arranged through your sponsor channel. Why would a UAE tourist visa be refused? Most refusals trace to a previous overstay or violation, passport/document problems, mismatched details, or security checks β€” rarely to finances. Can a hotel or airline really sponsor my visa? Yes. Airlines (with a booking), hotels (with a stay), licensed tour operators, and UAE-resident relatives are all standard sponsor channels. ## Explore related visa odds ### Other visas to UAE for Uzbek citizens -
