Planning to study in Kyrgyzstan? Get a clear step-by-step guide on student visa requirements, documents, costs, and process. My Study Offers helps you with admission, visa application, and arrival support for a smooth journey.

For international students-especially Indian applicants-Kyrgyzstan offers high-quality education, affordable living, and vibrant student life. To study in Kyrgyzstan, securing a student visa is essential. Applicants need a valid passport, admission letter, financial proof, medical certificate, and police clearance. The visa typically takes 7–14 days to process and is valid for one year, with renewal options for the course duration. NEET is mandatory for MBBS aspirants, and online or embassy application options are available.

Step 1: Choose Your University and Secure Admission

Start by shortlisting universities and academic programs aligned with your goals. Popular institutions include Kyrgyz National University, American University of Central Asia, and Kyrgyz-Turkish Manas University. Apply directly to your chosen university and wait for the official admission (offer) letter. This letter is mandatory for the visa application.

Step 2: Obtain an Invitation Letter

After admission, your university will help you acquire a Visa Support Letter or Invitation Letter from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Kyrgyzstan. This official document signals to the Kyrgyz government that you are a legitimate student applicant—a critical prerequisite for visa submission.

Step 3: Gather Your Documents

Prepare a complete file of documents, ensuring all are in the correct format and up-to-date:

  • Valid passport (at least six months beyond intended stay)
  • Visa Support/Invitation letter
  • Admission letter from the university
  • Completed visa application form
  • Passport-sized photographs
  • Academic certificates and transcripts
  • Medical certificate + HIV test report
  • Police Clearance Certificate (PCC)
  • Proof of financial ability: Recent bank statements or sponsor’s affidavit (typically INR 3-5 lakh balance)
  • Travel insurance (mandatory first year)
  • NEET scorecard (mandatory for MBBS applicants)
    Check embassy or official guidelines for the latest document requirements.

Step 4: Submit Visa Application

Submit your visa application either:

  • In-person at the Embassy of Kyrgyzstan in New Delhi, or
  • Online through the official e-visa portal (for short stays; full academic degrees require embassy visa)

Pay the visa fee when submitting:

  • 1-year student visa: approx. INR 7,440 (Embassy)
  • E-visa short-term (30–60 days): approx. INR 9,289–11,021 (single or multiple entry)
  • Visa extension: approx. INR 415–830 per 30-day renewal

Double-check payment details and current fees on embassy or e-visa websites.

Step 5: Attend an Interview (if required)

Some applicants may be asked to attend a visa interview at the embassy or consulate. Be prepared to discuss your study plans, financial capability, and reasons for choosing Kyrgyzstan. Dress professionally and answer confidently.

Step 6: Receive Visa Approval

Processing times vary:

  • Embassy application: 7–14 working days
  • E-visa: 3–7 days

Upon approval, you’ll receive a Type “S” visa for the full duration of your course (renewable annually). Always verify details and course validity upon receipt.

Step 7: On Arrival Requirements

Once in Kyrgyzstan, students must:

  • Register for a Temporary Residence Permit (TRP) through their university within 5 days of arrival
  • Arrange local accommodation and attend university orientation
  • Renew TRP annually with updated documents as the course progresses

Recent Updates & Key Changes

  • NEET qualification is now mandatory for MBBS/medical aspirants.
  • Visa validity is typically one year, renewable till course completion.
  • Temporary Residence Permit is strictly enforced for all students on arrival.
  • Some costs—including fees and medical tests—have increased slightly for 2025.
