How to get a new passport?

[-JUST-]

Assalomu alaykum,
I just wanted to know if it is possible for me to renew my passport when I'm in Uzbekistan although I would still have 1 year left for passport expiration? I just want to save myself from hassle of passport renewal when I'm back in the States. Is it possible?
Thank you.

I think according to the rules, you can renew your passport starting two months before expiration. A year is too long. I am not sure how far these rules can be bent. Maybe if you "lose" your passport, they will issue a new one which expires in 20 years :) Someone working at the "passport desk" can probably help you out with the loopholes. Please let us know if you find out :)

Passportini yo'qotib, yangi passport olishga harakat qilgan shaxslarga "file" (delo?) ochiladi. Just a piece of info.

[Пушкарева]

Officially you can renew your passport 6 months before its expiration. Verified info.

is getting a passport for non-students differs somehow?

[Prince]

Nothing is impossible in UZB , yes u can do that! But do not do "passportizzi yoqotib qoyib , engi pass olasiz" , Delo ochiladi , spiskaga tushasiz!! pasportni yoqotish oson ish emas!!!
2) Passportni engilaganizdan keyin , US embassyga kirish xam bomidi! sababi? Yoshiz xali 25 ga kirmagan , kirishizga 1 yilcha bor sizda esa engi passport - US Consulate sorashi mumkin: "Ne bu toy bola 1 yil oldin passport almashtirvoldiz? ubu ishkaliz bormidi!?" deb
3) US Elchihonasiga kirishdan oldin , passportiz ma`lum yoshda bolishi tavsia etiladi BRAND NEW passportga kopgina hollarda viza berishmaydi!!!
4) Mani maslahatim: DO NOT CHANGE UR PASS KEEP IT! come back to US and then try it with Uzbek Consulate , u dont need passport once u back to US ( if u have US Driver License)
Cheers ,

Thank you all for clarifying this matter. I didn't imagine that it is such a hasslesome task, so I think I'll just hold on to my passport.

agar passportingizni tugash muddatini uzaytirishni uylap "yuqotip quydim"
dep yangilamoqchi bulsangiz baribir yangi passportda eski tugash muddati kursatilar ekan.
yani foydasi yuq passportni yuqotip yangi passport olishni.

eski tugash muddati=passportni almashtirish vaqti {amal qilish muhlati}

Yuqolgan (ataylab yuqotilgan) passportni yangisini olish uchun ancha vaqt ham ketib qoladi...

Passportni o'zini almashtirish qiyin bo'lyapdiku, Sizlar uni ataylab yuqotib almashtirishni orzu qilyabsizlar :)
Shunchalik yugur-yugurga, telefon qilishga qiziqadiganlar ham ko'p ekan-da ;)

Visa olishingiz ancha yengillashadi (imkoniyatlarini oshiradi)...
Passportingizni almashtiryotganingiz haqida konsulga habar berishingiz, "nima qilish" haqida so'raganingiz ma'qul...

Go to the embassy.

[Globaluz]

За месяц до истечения паспорта надо обратиться в консульство, если меняете с зарубежа (раньше они не примут, пошлют подальше), платите пошлины, сдаете весь список документов, заполняете туже анкету ОВИРа и все сдаете и ждете 2-3 месяца. Вам пришлют новый паспорт с печатью овира (valid for all countries of the world :)). А вот насчет получения паспорта без самого владельца думаю невозможно, надо самому явиться для получения паспорта.

Not sure about US visa, but one story with UK one
now i am using my third passport. first was just for 6 months, issued before i was 16 and - thanks to pass. stol - with wrong brithday on it. i got my first uk visa to it. as soon as i got 16 i recieved my second one but again witht those mistakes. and then - i before applying to the university, i changed it to thrid one with all right details.
last year i've applied to uk visa again (without an interview), and i could give them neither 1st passport details, nor 1st uk visa ones. of course in a separate sheet, i ve explained them this stupid story, and don't know if they looked at it or not, but i recieved my visa to my almost brand new pass.

Esli pasport rezko terayetsa, ego snova vidayut na tot je srok.

If you lose your passport, you will get the new one with the same expiry date as you had before. Because when you change your passport upon reaching a certain age, the reason for renewal is your age and your passport is expired and is not valid any more, but when you lose it you have to obtain an equivalent one with the same expiry date since the reason for renewal was a loss. Then upon getting new passport with old expiry date, you can apply for a new passport due to the expiry.

Kinda mess, but I hope I made it clear :)

Hi, and how about renewing passport from an embassy?
My Uzbek girlfrend's passport will expire in february, we want to marry in august and come to live in Spain. We could postpone the wedding until she could change her passport in Uzbekistan before coming to Spain, but we would like to stick to our previous date.

Please, answer in English (or Spanish) :)


Thanks in advance.

All I can say is you are in big trouble and will have to deal with our ubiquitous bureaucracy machine.Good luck and let us know if any luck comes out of it.

similar situation. A friend of mine from Andijan has just arrived in the states and he is 24, his passport will expire sooner than his US visa. What should he, or can he do?
He asked me this question, and I was very confused.
Passport is to expire in a year, the visa is till 2009.:rolleyes:

if visa is valid throughout 2009,I assume,it's a tourist (b1/b2) visa.Correct me if I am wrong.Max. time person is allowed to stay in the country is 6 months.He can also extend it for 6 more months,but that will only allow him to stay for 12 months total.Afterwards,he has to exit the country and spend at least 6 months out of US.This time will be more than enough to get a new passport and apply for another visa.If he takes his old visa to US consulate,they will issue another one without any problems.
I have to mention that there will be a problem if he decided to apply for extension,he may have problems with getting a new visa on his new passport.
Solution will be somehow different if he has a student/professional worker visa.

change passport,it's easy for students to change it.Embassy will do it.
Apply for a new student visa whenever he goes back home to Uzbekistan.It's not a problem.He will still be in legal status.

the person I'm talking about has the similar situation. He has been a student(3-4 years), and still a student.But in about 2-3 months his passport expires, so he has to get a new one.
He has contacted the uzbek embassy in washington, noone answered :(. Someone suggested sending the passport to uzbekistan and change it there, but he is not so sure about it.
You say it is easy to change, how? can u please provide some info?

Call the embassy,that's the only thing I can suggest.Also,you can call Uzbek consulate in New York.States are splitted between embassy and consulate general,I guess it's something geographical.If you call embassy they will tell you.Most of embassy shitheads have been on vacation and are just coming back so I guess it will be easier to contact them.There are special forms to be filled out,but yes,it's relatevily easy for students to get their passport renewed as opposed to non-students.
I guess your contact point would be Jahongir Ergashev at consulate section of Uzbek Embassy.
Good luck at dealing with him:)

about 30 minutes ago talked to one guy who has changes his passport in 15 (!) days through embassy service... while abroad. lucky guy. he says all is up to local Passportniy Stol, because all what the embassy does is to send your passport to them (if you are not from tashkent, lucky you, he says, since in tashkent it is much time consuming and possibility of bribe involvement is high) :(
not sure you can do the same, 15 days.. - but... at least try

Thank you! At least I can come down and wait till my passport will expire. Coz what I did in past week is PODNYAL VSEH NA USHI V UZBEKISTANE of how to solve this problem not leaving US. I believe if they send my passport back home, somebody take care of it.

Can You tell who is that guy who managed to solve this problems so quickly? How can I find him?
Because with the same problem I am facing.
When I called the Uzb Consulate in Washington DC two days ago, they said that they are not responsible for passport renewal, they will just issue document certifying that the expiration of the passport when I fly back home.

[elDoraDo]

, they will just issue document certifying that the expiration of the passport when I fly back home.

are they out of their mind??? I guess they need one as a new year gift.
I am sorry but that guy will hardly help you. He lost his father couple of days ago and not in a situation to be involved in such issues. Although he arranged everything through local authorities (in Namangan) which is not general.

So the only advice is talk to your relatives in your area in Uzb (if not tashkent), and ask them to make it through mestniy ovir. Believe me anyways it goes much smoother and faster than in the capital.

If I arrange everything in my "mestniy ovir", should I do the passport renewal procedure through them, right? Will they help ? if so, what should I tell them?

I got mine in less than 2 months. It does work: I am not the only one who has exchanged it through the UZ embassy. Just follow the instructions on their home page, provide all the required documents and you'll be fine. Good luck.

thats what actually the person who has to get a new passport has been telling me about the case. But, after all discussions I saw here I became sceptical, which is in vane i think now :) Thanks, NeZaBudkA Honim.

[lilbit]

So it's basicly two ways: one of them "Postavit' vseh na ushi doma" and another one is to go ahead and meet our foreighn officials in order to exchange the passport. So we'll see what will happen.
thx

[Пушкарева]

I would not recommend exchanging a passport through family in Tashkent. That will cause one huuuuuge problems with customs officials when getting back to Uzb. It is possible to get it done through the embassy though. This would be my advice to those who have to go through all that pasport related hussle.

Munisahon, I am glad if that helped you somehow. :)

[forex]

Only students can renew their passports while they are in the US.If you are not a student,forget about it.

[Vector]

people are saying that it is very risky to go back with passport done in Uzbekistan and sent back to its owner...why?
i know someone who did that way and safely went and back from Uzbekistan without any problems or hussle :? what would be the consequences?

people are saying that it is very risky to go back with passport done in Uzbekistan and sent back to its owner...why?
i know someone who did that way and safely went and back from Uzbekistan without any problems or hussle :? what would be the consequences?

kstati, zabil skazat chto konsul mne posovetoval zdelat vse samomu cherez svoih znakomih vTashkente. To ist, oni poydut poluchiat moy passport i po pochte prishlut mne. On daje ne zabil dobavit chto, eto nelegalno, no bistro i effectivno.:lol:

[elDoraDo]

I would not recommend exchanging a passport through family in Tashkent. That will cause one huuuuuge problems with customs officials when getting back to Uzb. It is possible to get it done through the embassy though. This would be my advice to those who have to go through all that pasport related hussle.

why do you say that? how do they differe two passports one issues through emb, and the second - submitted by your relatives? because i have compared the such two and couldn't find any dissimiliarities - all stamps, all procedures are the same. so, esli net raznicy - to zachem "platit bolshe"?
p.s. even complaints at customs when back home are the same "w.t.h. is this?" :D

[elDoraDo]

If I arrange everything in my "mestniy ovir", should I do the passport renewal procedure through them, right? Will they help ? if so, what should I tell them?

I meant mestniy passportniy stol. They are responsible for both passport and uzbek external viza renewals. by highlighting this instance i wanted to say - this way you would do it faster than doing it through gorodskoy or MID itself (donno but have heard such cases) unless your tog'a is someone special there.
anyways i guess the procedure is up to people's case and always different.

People living in UK, usualy does what u said about changing o passport in "mestniy passportniy stol" but, the problem is to make it as legally as possible, and without any breaks.
So basicly ot will take about 3 months to get a new passport, isn't it???

why is that? in some countries, any uzbek can change their pasport being abroad, but here not.

I think you should try one more time, in US they were like in Rome before. now they are helping to students as well. go there and talk to them. dont be smartass, they dont like it. but you will wait long loooong time for the renewal:(

if passport was renewed after the expiration, say 1-2 months later? is it risky?

[corsair]

Assalomu alaykum,
I just wanted to know if it is possible for me to renew my passport when I'm in Uzbekistan although I would still have 1 year left for passport expiration? I just want to save myself from hassle of passport renewal when I'm back in the States. Is it possible?
Thank you.

i thought we spoke about too many times... but no...
i think you can renew your passport only when its due to expire...
law says so... law says a lot, i know...
i know the guy who kind of lost it and asked for a new one, they gave him a new with expiring date in 3 monthes, to his 25th bday... LOL

so, think about it yourself, go for it if you want some headache or you can do it next year and it would be a good reason to go back and see your friends and family etc...

do not be surprised.If you want to send a notarized document to Uzbekistan,it has to go through all those agencies.Otherwise,they do not want to accept it.Sad,but true.
As for those forms,they can be picked up at any "passportniy stol" in tashkent.I do not understand why you have to get it from embassy.
Anyways,good luck and lots of patience;)

The story with the forms is . . .
I tryed to get them
It was a real shit when I tryed to get those forms in generale consulate in NYC (tryed my friend not me - he was supposed to visit me in 2 days). He told them that he has a Green Card and takes all those forms for me. Some stupid damn ass asked him to call me and requested me to send him copy of my passport, I told him to **** all that shit out of his head, and then called Embasssy - BTW nice people over there. I asked them, if I can get those forms from Uzb, and they told me NOOOOO, they are a bit different, so . . . monkey say monkey do. and result FORMS are the same :P

look at their web page or call their Embassy in USA, I am sure the procedures are almost same.
I usually change my passport according to their requirments and never had problems.

[Spiff]

Hi and thanks for replying.

If there were an Uzbek consulate in Canada, I'm pretty sure the procedure you pointed me to would be similar and I wouldn't be worried. The problem is that there is no such consulate. It seems to me that the person would need to go to the consulate in NY, but to do so she would need a visa and there are no available pages in her passport.

I tried phoning the consulate but could never actually reach anyone; I've even emailed them a few weeks ago and didn't get any answer.

Any other pointers?

And just out of curiosity, how long does it take for a new passport to be emitted?

Thanks!

Those bustards never answer the calls, no matter where there are. And when they pick up the phone they say "daaaaa, chjo nado?". :twisted: But keep on calling, you have no choice.
If there are no pages in your current pass, you can obtain alien passport as a foreign resident of Canada which allows traveling all over the world except Uzbekistan.
In my case it took normally from one up to three months to get my passport changed. Last time when I finally could reach those bustards on the phone, there had been already three months gone since I applied all documents. And when I went to consulate to pick up my new passport I found out that it was issued two months ago. F..ck them! Borat was very right saying "sons of bitches" when driving near uzbek consulate in New York. :lol:

It is a kind of travel document issued for foreign citizens on temporary(not sure) or permanent basis. I do not know your status in Canada, therefor check this out or call your immigration officer.

Sent all the dosuments to our embassy:

so, totally it's at least $249, but I spent more

UPDATE
express mail - at least 100,
so, at least $350 is the cost of green card, oops!!! passport. :D)))))

[Spain_resident]

Hi, Nemets.
I`ve read you live in Germany.
Well, my question is especially for you.
I live in Spain and my uzbek passport will expire in december 2008, so, i was actually thinking how could i get a new one. As far as uzbek diplomatic mission is not present in Spain, do you think uzbek embassy in Germany would meet me with arms wide open and help with my case ? or should i try to change my passport through some people i still have in uzbekistan? The fact is that i don`t think i`m ever going to go back to uzbekistan. So, i dont think i`ll meet those ugly people at the airport. I only go to Moscow in ocasions.
Best regards.

tak kak v teh passportah srok ukazan kak XXX , bila svidetelem, kak u nekotorih bili problemi s etim. v banke skazali "It is a fake passport, which does not state the expiration date" :lool: vot bilo veselo okazivaetsya. poka oni obyasnili, chto eto u nas tak po dehkanski ukazivayut "no no no", chasa 2 taskalis' po banku. vsyo taki sotrudniki banka ostalis' skeptical.

:evil:

The Uzbek passports have been subjected to slight changes lately; one of the changes is that now instead of XXX (I was translating for an elderly Uzbek at JFK -- he had XXX in his passport -- the customs officer goes "is he a porn dealer?", I am like, no comments) it will say UNLIMITED. God bless OSCE who pushed for the Uzbek passport modification.
Re passport change: better send it to your parents/relatives/friends to Uzb and have it changed there. Does take money, but worth of efforts.

Hi folks!

One question: does anybody tryed to renew expired passport in UK recently. I have some friends who has the same problem as I had in US, but as they told me consulate doesn't have this option for Uzbekistan citizens.

any info???

[>><<]

Call the embassy,that's the only thing I can suggest.Also,you can call Uzbek consulate in New York.States are splitted between embassy and consulate general,I guess it's something geographical.If you call embassy they will tell you.Most of embassy shitheads have been on vacation and are just coming back so I guess it will be easier to contact them.There are special forms to be filled out,but yes,it's relatevily easy for students to get their passport renewed as opposed to non-students.
I guess your contact point would be Jahongir Ergashev at consulate section of Uzbek Embassy.
Good luck at dealing with him:)

does anybody know the phone numbers?

I'm going trough the same thing. But it has been longer since I sent it to the embassy, and I am on a deadline now. I need my passport before August. So, I had my relatives go trough all the steps of beurocracy involved in this. Your passport is most likely to have stuck in the OVIR headquarters in MVD in Tashkent, if you have already contacted with the regional OVIR and the pasportniy stol. Good luck to all of us :).

[Пушкарева]

Yep, u r right. Delays with passport exchange might be due to couple of reasons: 1) the passport has been sent to Tashkent late and 2) it got stuck in some bureau in Tashkent (OVIR, MVD, MID).

I was lucky, I got mine exchanged in 2.5 months, but my friends were waiting for theirs quite long. You have to call and track where is the document right now and if it is in Tashkent, ask your family to invove and speed up the process. You know how works there.

Good luck.

A friend of mine has been in the US with his family for 3 years, of course with a Green Card. He has a son who is going to be 16 in a couple of months, so he has to get an Uzb. passport. My question is, does he have to go to Uzb for the passport or can this be done here in the US through the Consulate in NY?

If the family is registered with the Uzbek Consulate in the USA he will get the passport without leaving the US territory. The Consulate will issue the passport.

I think the Embassy of Uzbekistan in France services Spain and Portugal as well.

You may call to France and ask if it does:

Embassy of Uzbekistan in France

Посольство РУ во Франции
331 5330-0353, 53300354 ф.
Олимов Равшанбек Озодбекович ЧПП
22, rue d’Aguesseau, 75008, Paris

You can't believe (me do either) that I found Consulates General in Spain:

http://uzbekistan.visahq.com/embassy/Spain/

but according to mfa.uz there is no any diplomatic mission in Spain.

[beentohell]

Cool! i never new that i can change my passport being in the other state. Thanks a lot guys!

[Abdug'ofur]

Hello, everyone.

I am a citizen of Uzbekistan and currently not in my country. My passport will expire on July,2009. But at that time I will not be in Uzbekistan, inshaallah.

The problem is that the country where I will probably be at that time does not have any Embassy or Consulate of Uzbekistan. As far as I know the consulate of Uzbekistan in Turkey takes care of consular works for that country.

So, I want to renew my passport without going to Uzbekistan. How can i do it? Should I contact to The Consular of Uzbekistan in Turkey or may I apply through the embassies or consulates of Uzbekistan which reside in the countries other than Turkey?

One more thing. May i renew my passport just sending it to my family so that they will do everything in my name and will send back the ready passport to me.

I will probably be in South Africa at that time, inshaallah.

[Spain_resident]

Hi, i`m almost in the same situation.
I`m an uzbek citizen, but i don`t live in Uzbekistan anymore, as far as i could read on this forum, people usually have problems dealing with the embassy of Uzbekistan in any country, so, whatever your ideas are, you are welcome to share them with me.
Now i think the only option is to change it through the friends or family in Uzbekistan.

[Vector]

you can renew your passport with your family BUT it is illegal and you may face serious problems in the airport while entering Uzbekistan! so you should find someone who can help you with that problem.
Try to renew it through the embassy and get a letter confirming your renewal with them.

Best decision for you is to get your passport renewed through a Diplomatic Representative of the RUz in France oder Germany if you live in Spain permanently. But note first you have to be registered by.
But if you family lives in Uzbekistan what is obstacle for you to renew it during your vizit to your family?!
Or you have an Asylum in Spain, haven't you?

Wa alykum salam, depending on where you live you either send the package to DC or NY.
Check out these links:
uzbekistan.org/ru/consular/services/passport_renewal/
uzbekconsulny.org/ru/consular/passport/
(I can't post links, that's why removed prefixes)


I suggest you pay a visit to a consulate with all documents instead of trying to reach them by phone.
Good luck with this.

перемены, фамилии, имени, отчества;
изменения национальности
установления неточностей в записях

негодности для использования утери

Mahalliy milisaga murojaat qilganligingiz haqida ma'lumotnoma olasizda,
20. Гражданин обязан бережно хранить паспорт. Об утрате
паспорта гражданин должен немедленно заявить в органы внутренних дел по месту постоянной прописки либо дипломатическое представительство или консульское учреждение Республики Узбекистан за рубежом по месту пребывания, которые по его заявлению выдают ему справку установленного образца. Форма справки устанавливается Министерством внутренних дел или Министерством иностранных дел Республики Узбекистан.
При утрате гражданином паспорта новый паспорт выдается в
установленном порядке в течение одного месяца со дня подачи заявления об утрате.
17. Гражданин для получения или обмена паспорта должен
представить документы и фотографические карточки не позднее месячного срока после достижения соответствующего возраста или перемены фамилии,имени, отчества, изменения года рождения и национальности, установления неточностей в записях, непригодности паспорта для использования, а в случаях, когда паспорт выдан на конкретный срок - в трехдневный срок с момента окончания срока действия паспорта(sizga ta'luqli). Lekin men eshitishimcha ayirim vaqtlarda -1-2 oy oldin ham qabul qilishaveradi, lekin bunga qonuniy asos topaolmadim hali, albatda "после достижения","с момента окончания срока действия паспорта" ni oldindan topshirish mumkin deb talqin qilib bo'lmasa.
