13. Transport and moving

  The most convenient way to get to Uzbekistan is by plane. The flight schedule of the NAC “Uzbekistonkhavoyullari” is available Domestic flights connect almost all major cities of the country with Tashkent. International trains run regularly through Uzbekistan. Train timetables are available Tickets can be bought at the ticket office of railway stations

Intercity transportation

In Uzbekistan, there are tourist train routes in the direction of the Great Silk Road. From Tashkent by train, you can easily get to Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva, Termez and other large transport hubs and historical centers. Official taxis in Uzbekistan have the identification mark “TAXI”. Yellow vehicles work as linear taxis, and in the city of Tashkent - “ivory” colors. Taxi services in the cities of Uzbekistan are relatively cheaper, and they are performed at contractual rates. When using the taxi service (except for a taxi on call), you should bargain in advance and agree on a price. In addition, Yandex Taxi offers its customers high-quality and fast service.

14. Photographing and filming

Shooting is allowed in almost all historical and architectural sights, except at airports, at military and strategic sites, in some religious places. Some of them have a separate filming fee, the amount of which is set by the administration.  

15. Credit Cards and ATMs

  Payment by international credit cards can be made mainly in large restaurants, hotels. In shops, catering places and local transport, payment is usually made in cash Uzbek soums. Money from an international credit card can be cashed at an ATM located in airports, hotels and other tourist facilities throughout the country. In Uzbekistan, you can easily cash US dollars from international plastic cards Visa and MasterCard. The number of ATMs is constantly increasing not only in the capital, but also in other regions of the country. You can exchange American dollars, euros, British pounds and Japanese yens for Uzbek sums at exchange offices that are installed in banks, airports, hotels and other tourist facilities of the country. Dollars can be exchanged for Uzbek sums at any currency exchange point, which are located in all public places.  

16. Communication

  To become a subscriber of any mobile company in Uzbekistan, when drawing up a subscription contract, a foreign citizen must provide two documents: national or foreign passport; a document confirming the right of temporary residence in the territory of Uzbekistan (temporary registration or hotel registration). The minimum cost for connecting the numbers of all operators is about 1 US $ (payment is made in national currency). At international airports in Tashkent and Bukhara, you can buy SIM cards from the mobile operator UMS. Offices are open during flights. To do this, you must present a passport with a seal on arrival in Uzbekistan, and pay the required amount for the selected tariff plan. There are also UMS sales points at the central railway station of Tashkent, and at the International and Sayekhat hotels (both in Tashkent). In all other cases, foreign citizens can conclude a subscription agreement only at the central and head offices of mobile operators in cities. The addresses and contacts of these offices can be found further. The fee for outgoing international and local calls depends on the selected tariff plan. You can choose a tariff plan and find out about services on the websites of mobile operators (Appendix No. 6). Many places of tourist attractions have access to Wi-Fi with access to the Internet for free or by prepaid cards for using the Internet service, which can be purchased locally. Uzbektelecom joint-stock company created this opportunity at the locations of the most visited tourist attractions in the republic, as well as at international airports, large hotels and other objects of the tourism industry.  

17. Emergency

  An extensive network of 173 medical emergency medical institutions has been created in Uzbekistan. The average arrival time of an ambulance is 15 minutes. Emergency medical care in Uzbekistan is provided free of charge. Those in need of urgent medical intervention can always get help at the emergency rooms of hospitals and clinics. All hotels have the opportunity to receive first aid. Everyone has the right to use the ambulance service. 5-star hotels have a 24-hour medical room. Medicines are sold in pharmacies (in Uzbek " Дорихона " or "Dorixona"). Pharmacies usually work from 9:00 to 18:00. There are also 24-hour pharmacies. Reference Pharmacy Number: (998 71) 140 19 19. As a rule, medicines are provided with instructions for use in Russian and Uzbek, as well as in the language of the manufacturer. Almost all drugs, with the exception of drugs containing strong tranquilizers and drugs, can be bought at a pharmacy without a prescription. On a note! Most pharmacy sellers, doctors and medical staff do not speak foreign languages, so the assistance of a guide or hotel employee may be required. In case of hospitalization in a local hospital and if long-term treatment is necessary, it is advisable to contact the diplomatic mission of your country. Specific medicines, such as insulin, are recommended to be taken on a trip in sufficient quantities, while you must have a prescription for using medicines from a doctor. The Republic of Uzbekistan does not impose requirements regarding vaccination or prophylaxis of persons entering Uzbekistan.  

18. Insurance coverage of foreign tourists

  It is recommended that you purchase a medical insurance policy for your stay in Uzbekistan. This will allow you to get the necessary medical care if necessary. The insurance policy can be purchased both in the host country and in Uzbekistan. The insurance policy must include: the telephone number of the service assistant company, where you need to contact if you need medical attention; information about the insured, insurer, as well as personal data of the insured person; insurance program and insurance conditions (definition of the insured event and applicable exceptions), which, as a rule, are an annex to the insurance policy; amount of the insured amount and insurance premium; the territory of the insurance policy.   APPENDIX   Appendix No. 1A
