SG — Special guest visa

The Special Guest Visa (SG) is a prestigious and highly specific visa category issued to foreign nationals invited to the Kyrgyz Republic for significant business or private purposes. This classification is reserved for individuals whose visit is facilitated by the highest levels of the Kyrgyz government, specifically requiring an official invitation from the President of the Kyrgyz Republic, the Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers, or the Minister of Foreign Affairs. It reflects the importance of the visitor's contribution to bilateral relations, high-level diplomacy, or strategic national interests, and is granted for a duration not exceeding one year.

To qualify for the Special Guest Visa, the applicant must present the official invitation letter issued by the designated high-ranking government authority. The applicant must also hold a valid passport that meets standard international requirements. Because this visa is granted based on high-level government sponsorship, the issuance process is handled with particular attention to the purpose of the visit. The associated fees are determined by the relevant issuance authority at the time of application, reflecting the unique and official nature of this visa category within the Kyrgyz immigration framework.
