🇰🇬 Kyrgyzstan visa requirements for Latvian citizens

Entry rules for Latvia passport holders

Holders of a valid passport from Latvia can travel to Kyrgyzstan for tourism or short business trips without applying for a visa, for stays of up to 60 days. You'll typically just need a passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date, and you may be asked to show proof of onward travel or sufficient funds at the border.

The 60-day limit applies to the visit itself — if you plan to stay longer, work, or study in Kyrgyzstan, you'll need to apply for the appropriate visa or permit before traveling.

Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Kyrgyzstan immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.

This is not reciprocal — traveling the other way, Kirghiz citizens need to arrange entry to Latvia in advance (visa required).

Across Central Asia as a whole, 4 of 5 destinations are open to Latvian travelers without arranging a visa in advance.
