Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan will be launching a Schengen-like Silk Visa as a part of the efforts to launch a Single Visa regime for the Central Asia region. This will be offered in early part of this year.

The Silk Visa aims to remove barriers and enhance proximity among the people in the Central Asia region. It also aims to boost tourism and the economy in the region. The Visa will be launched officially in February this year.

The changes were cheered by the population of cities such as Samarkand. These had endured long periods of economic decline, as quoted by the Daily Sabah.
