Additionally, some nationalities may enter Tajikistan visa-free (mainly CIS countries) or require a Letter of Invitation (LOI) first.
Common nationalities that may require embassy-based applications include Pakistan, Afghanistan, and certain African and Middle Eastern countries.

Several countries have bilateral agreements allowing their citizens to enter Tajikistan without any visa:
- Russia
- Kazakhstan
- Kyrgyzstan
- Uzbekistan
- Belarus
- Ukraine (subject to current political circumstances)

Multiple Entry Eligibility
Eligible countries can also apply for a Multiple Entry eVisa – useful for travelers who plan to cross into neighboring countries (Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, China, Afghanistan) and re-enter Tajikistan. The multiple entry option costs more than the standard single-entry $50 USD visa. See our page on Tajikistan eVisa types for a full comparison.
