THE U.S. EMBASSY BEGINS U.S. VISA INTERVIEWS IN DUSHANBE
DUSHANBE, TAJIKISTAN. On Tuesday, August 1, the U.S. Embassy in Tajikistan will begin interviewing for U.S visas at our New Embassy Compound located at 109A Ismoili Somoni Avenue (Zarafshon district).
Tajik citizens seeking tourist, business, and student visas will no longer need to travel to Almaty, Kazakhstan to apply for U.S. visas. If you plan on traveling to the United States, please read the following information on the U.S. visa process.
* All applicants must schedule a visa interview appointment by emailing the Consulate at
DushanbeConsular@state.gov or by calling 992-37-229-2300. The Consulate will interview and discuss visa issues only with applicants with appointments. Visa interviews will be scheduled for Monday through Thursday mornings. When requesting a date for your visa interview, please be prepared to give us your full name, passport information, purpose of travel, and contact information. Students should also give special information about their student acceptance forms from the United States. Please call at least two weeks prior to expected travel. Please consult the Embassy's website, dushanbe.usembassy.gov, or the U.S. Department of State travel website,
travel.state.gov, for more information.
* On the day of the interview, all applicants must bring with them a printed copy of their completed electronic visa application form, found at evisaforms.state.gov, two 5x5 cm photos on a white background, the $100 visa processing fee (in U.S. dollars only), their international passport, and any documents specifically related to their purpose of travel and financial means.
The opening of the Consular Section at the U.S. Embassy in Tajikistan will make an important contribution toward the further strengthening of U.S.-Tajik relations. We encourage all Tajik citizens with legitimate non-immigrant travel plans to apply. We remind you, however, that due to strict labor and immigration laws applicants must demonstrate significant social and economic ties to their home country at the time of the visa interview. Work visas can only be granted to those applicants with prearranged official work agreements in the United States, as represented by an official form from the U.S. Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services.
