Top Local Tips for Tashkent

Prepare yourself for long waits at immigration and customs The line at immigration moves very slowly, and there was no designated line for foreigners. Then, all luggage must go through Xray. As our plane was filled with locals returning from a shopping trip in China, they were loaded down with everything from mops to big-screen TVs. The entire process - and ours was the only plane - took two-plus hours. On the way out of the country, arrive early. We arrived at 4:30 a.m. for our 6:30 a.m. flight....and boarded at 6:45 a.m. We couldn't locate English-language exit forms either, so we used our copies of our entry forms to compare each field and fill in the Uzbek language form accordingly.
