A historic increase has been recorded in the number of tourists visiting Uzbekistan. For the first time in the country’s history, the monthly flow of foreign visitors has consistently exceeded 1 million people.
According to results for January–September 2025, 8.6 million foreign tourists visited the republic — 112.5% more than in the same period last year.
Growth has been observed in nearly all key markets. Compared to post-pandemic figures from 2022, the number of tourists has increased as follows:
- From the United Kingdom — 2.6 times,
- From Qatar — 6.2 times,
- From the United States — 3 times,
- From France — 2.9 times,
- From Russia — 2.1 times,
- From Hungary — 3.3 times,
- From Germany — 2.5 times,
- From Poland — 6.2 times.
At the same time, the volume of tourism service exports in 2025 also reached a record level, exceeding 3.6 billion USD. These strong results are the outcome of the reforms implemented under the leadership of President Shavkat Mirziyoyev in the tourism sector. The reforms aim to unlock the country’s unique tourism potential.
Key factors behind this success include expanding international cooperation, promoting Uzbekistan’s tourism brand in global media, organizing major roadshows abroad, and actively participating in international tourism exhibitions. These efforts have increased Uzbekistan’s global recognition and helped establish it as one of the fastest-growing tourism destinations in Eurasia.
