From April the visa section at the British Embassy in Tashkent will no longer operate as a decision making post. We will continue to accept applications and will then send passports and applications by courier to the British Consulate General in Istanbul, for a decision to be made by UK visa officers.

You will receive an email when your application is received at the British Consulate General Istanbul and when a decision is made. When your passport is received in our office in Tashkent we will notify you – please allow 2-3 days from the date of the email informing you a decision has been made.
