Tajikistan is a country that, due to its strategic location in the heart of Central Asia, shares borders with five countries<\/strong>: Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, China and a small portion with Pakistan (although not transitable). The purpose of this guide is to share the most useful and up-to-date information on how to cross the main border crossings<\/strong>, their specific features, their passability, and what to keep in mind depending on the neighboring country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During my trip through Central Asia and the mythical Silk Road<\/a>, I entered Tajikistan from the border crossing with Kyrgyzstan, through the Kyzyl-Art pass, and then left through the crossing it shares with Uzbekistan, between Panjakent and Samarkand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I also did a fair amount of research on the other options available. For travelers traveling overland, knowing where to enter and exit is key, as not all border crossings are open to international tourism or in optimal conditions. In Tajikistan, crossing a border can be as much a part of the adventure as the destination itself.<\/p>\n\n\n
