Uzbekistan targets 2 lakh Indian tourists by 2030, unveils ambitious tourism push

Uzbekistan’s tourism sector has undergone a dramatic transformation since 2017, when the country adopted an “open door” visa policy. From just 2.4 million visitors in 2017, arrivals surged to 10.2 million in 2024, with tourism revenue hitting $3.5 billion last year. India, though still a nascent market, saw 82,000 visitors in 2024—a near doubling from 47,000 in 2023.
