List of diplomatic missions of Uzbekistan

This is a list of diplomatic missions of Uzbekistan. These missions are subordinate to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The country maintains an active and steadily expanding network of embassies and consulates that reflect its growing engagement in regional and international affairs. Uzbekistan has significant interests in Central Asia, Eastern Europe, and the Near East, as well as in major political and economic centers around the world. Its diplomatic outreach reflects a balance between historical ties to Russia and the former Soviet states and new strategic partnerships with China, the United States, and the European Union.

After gaining independence from the Soviet Union, in 1991, Uzbekistan established its first embassies in neighboring states and major global capitals to assert its sovereignty and promote international recognition. In the early years, financial constraints and limited resources affected the scope of its diplomatic representation. However, the country gradually expanded its presence abroad, focusing on developing trade relations, attracting foreign investment, and supporting its diaspora communities.

Uzbekistan’s diplomatic missions have also played a key role in advancing regional cooperation within organizations such as the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO), and the Organization of Turkic States (OTS). The country maintains embassies and consulates in most of its neighboring countries, as well as in strategic locations across Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and North America.

In recent years, Uzbekistan has intensified its foreign policy efforts under President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, reopening and establishing new embassies and consulates in regions of growing importance to its economy and security.
