Tajikistan and the Maldives Sign Agreement to Abolish Visa
Requirements, Azernews reports.
Tajikistan and the Maldives have signed an intergovernmental
agreement that eliminates the visa requirement between the two
countries. The documents were signed by Jonibek Hikmat, the
Permanent Representative of Tajikistan to the UN, and Ali Nasir
Mohamed, the Permanent Representative of the Maldives to the
UN.
Under the terms of the agreement, citizens of both countries
will be exempt from visa requirements for entry, exit, transit, and
temporary stay in each other's territory. However, the length of
stay in either country should not exceed 30 days.
The agreement, which is set to last indefinitely, will come into
effect 30 days after the parties receive the final written
notification, via diplomatic channels, confirming the completion of
the necessary internal procedures in both countries.
This move is expected to strengthen bilateral ties and
facilitate travel and tourism between Tajikistan and the Maldives,
two countries that have been increasingly focusing on improving
diplomatic and economic relations. The Maldives, known for its
tourism industry, will benefit from greater connectivity with
Central Asia, while Tajikistan stands to gain from increased
tourism and potential trade opportunities.
The visa exemption agreement comes at a time when many countries
are revisiting their visa policies to promote easier travel and
strengthen international cooperation.
