Tashkent International Airport

Tashkent International Airport (Uzbek: Toshkent Xalqaro Aeroporti – (IATA: TAS, ICAO: UTTT)) is the main international airport of Uzbekistan and the busiest airport in Central Asia. It is located 12 km (7.5 mi) from the center of Tashkent.

Overview

This ICAO Category II airport is the primary hub of Uzbekistan Airways, and is the largest international airport in Uzbekistan, and the busiest in Central Asia. The airport comprises two terminals: Terminal 2 receives international flights, Terminal 3 is for domestic traffic.

Terminal 2 was rebuilt in 2001, and is currently undergoing renovations.[] It has a capacity of 1000 passengers/hour and serves more than two million passengers per year. Other facilities include waiting lounges, CIP and VIP halls, restaurants and bars, currency exchange offices, duty-free shops, airlines ticket counters and sales offices, and a 24-hour pharmacy. The terminal operates at near maximum capacities; arriving passengers frequently spend an average of two hours completing customs and immigration formalities.

Terminal 3 opened in 2011 with a capacity of 400 passengers per hour. The two terminals are separated by the runway, requiring passengers transiting from international to domestic flights and vice versa to exit the airport in order to transfer between them.

The government of Uzbekistan is planning to relocate Tashkent Airport to a new site by 2030.

Arrival: Get the English custom form (2 copies) on the plane as the ones at the arrival hall are in local language; declare cash brought in. Be prepared to wait as all bags will be scanned by custom.

Want to speed up your departure? Nothing much you can do unfortunately. But be sure to take a few extra customs forms upon arrival. Having those filled out beforehand helps... a bit.

If you are a foreigner, best is to have an agency arranged visa help - they will send someone inside the restricted zone to guide you to the right places. Except zero help from the airport staff.

Money Exchange is immediately left after immigration. Taxi counter offers 40,000 uzs rides. Bus #67 a good option too for 1400 uzs. Insanely inflated prices once inside the terminal
