Uzbek passport holders need a visa to enter Liechtenstein. Since Liechtenstein is part of the Schengen Area, you apply for a Schengen visa through the Swiss embassy or consulate (Switzerland handles visa matters for Liechtenstein). Plan ahead — processing typically takes 15 calendar days, but can stretch to 45 days during peak seasons.

Switzerland handles Liechtenstein visas
Liechtenstein does not have its own visa-issuing embassies. All Schengen visa applications for Liechtenstein are processed by Swiss diplomatic missions. When booking your appointment, select 'Switzerland' as the destination country — your visa will be valid for Liechtenstein too.
Apply well in advance
Visa processing can take up to 45 days during peak travel seasons. Don't wait until the last minute. Apply at least 4–6 weeks before your planned departure to avoid stress.
