🇸🇾 Syria visa requirements for Tadzhik citizens
Tadzhik citizens can get a visa on arrival when entering Syria — no embassy visit needed beforehand.
Entry rules for Tajikistan passport holders
Tadzhik travelers can obtain their visa directly at the border or airport when arriving in Syria. Bring a passport with at least six months' validity, passport photos, and the visa fee (often payable only in cash). Lines can be long at peak times, so check whether Syria also offers an e-visa to skip the queue.
Entry rules can change at short notice. Always confirm current requirements with the official Syria immigration authority or your nearest embassy before booking.
How this compares
The Tadzhik passport ranks #146 worldwide, opening 58 destinations without a visa arranged in advance (23 visa-free, 32 with a visa on arrival and 3 with an eTA). Syria is one of them.
