What it means in practice
60 days is about two months. If you arrive on 1 November 2026, your last legal day is 30 December 2026, because the arrival day is day one. Use the stay calculator for your own dates.
How Tajikistan counts your stay: Visa-free: up to 30 days, with registration within 10 working days. E-visa: up to 60 days, no registration needed. Even a short overstay brings a fine and requires an exit visa, which is not issued at airports.

How to avoid overstaying
- Go by your stamp or visa. The date the officer gives you is the one that counts, even if it is shorter than the maximum.
- Plan to leave a day or two early. With 60 days, book your exit before the last legal day so a cancelled flight doesn't push you over.
- Extend before you run out. Tourist visas cannot be extended. Most other visa types can be extended at the MFA Consular Department in Dushanbe. Stays over 90 days need an HIV-free certificate.
- What overstaying costs. Even a short overstay brings a fine and requires an exit visa, which is not issued at airports.
