Marriage to a Uzbek Citizen

Every country has its own laws that apply to its citizens marrying a person from a different country. Getting married to a Uzbek citizen with the goal of eventually bringing them to Canada to live is a process with many steps.

If you want to bring your Uzbek spouse or partner to live in Canada, you must then file a sponsorship application for them to become a permanent resident. If they would like to visit you in Canada while their application is in process, they must also apply for a visitor visa. For more information, please see our family sponsorship page and our visitor visa page.

 

Processing Time

If you file a Canadian sponsorship application for your Uzbek spouse or partner, this application takes an average of 10-12 months.

A visitor visa application for your spouse or partner to visit you in Canada while the sponsorship applications are processing takes an average of 3 –14 days.

Please see our pages on family sponsorship and Canadian visitor visa for more information on the processing times of these applications.

 

Uzbek Marriage Basic Requirements

Canadians travelling to Uzbekistan to get married will require a visa and visa supporting documents before they can be allowed to marry.

The cost of getting the visa is $60-120. An invitation letter is also required before getting the visa and the visit should be up to a month for $40 a person.

Visas can be granted at the airport on arrival at Uzbekistan but on request, to get official government approval of the invitation letter to visit Uzbekistan takes 10-14 days.

 

Family Members

If your Uzbek spouse has dependent children, this does not affect the Uzbek Marriage document application.

If you have dependent children, they have no effect on the application to marry a Uzbek citizen.
