Uzbek citizens require a Schengen short-stay visa to enter Spain, including the Balearic Islands of Ibiza, Menorca and Formentera. The visa is applied for at the Spanish consulate or the visa centre it uses in the country of residence. No special conditions apply. This page summarises the process for a tourist visit.
What the visa means
A Schengen short-stay visa allows a stay of up to 90 days in any 180-day period across the Schengen area. It covers tourism, family visits or business trips. For the Balearic Islands, the visa is valid for entry at any Schengen airport or port.
The visa does not permit work or study. For those purposes, a national visa or residence permit is required. Check the official Spanish consulate website for the correct application type.
Before you travel and at the border
Apply well before your planned departure. The visa decision is made by the Spanish consulate. At the border, present a valid passport (issued within the previous ten years and valid at least three months beyond the planned departure from Schengen) and the visa sticker.
Border officers may ask for proof of accommodation, return tickets and sufficient funds. Keep copies of your travel insurance and itinerary. Rules can change, so check the Spanish consulate website before travelling.
Arriving on the islands
Ibiza Airport (IBZ) and Menorca Airport (MAH) are the main entry points. Formentera has no airport; fly to Ibiza and take a ferry from the port of Eivissa to La Savina. Mallorca is a transit point for flights or ferries but is not covered by this site.
Ferry services between the islands operate year-round but reduce in winter. Check the current schedule with the ferry company. The visa is checked on arrival at the first Schengen port of entry.
Staying longer, working or studying
A Schengen short-stay visa cannot be extended for tourism. For stays longer than 90 days, or for work or study, apply for a national visa or residence permit from the Spanish consulate before travelling.
Each application type has specific documents and conditions. Check the official website of the Spanish Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the consulate in your country of residence for full details.
