Uzbekistan: An Open and Safe Destination Recognized by the International Community

Uzbekistan: An Open and Safe Destination Recognized by the International Community

In today's interconnected world, a country's attractiveness is measured not only by its economic potential or cultural heritage, but also by how safe people feel in their daily lives. Public safety has become one of the key factors influencing tourism, investment and international cooperation.

According to the Safety Perceptions Index 2023, published by the Institute for Economics & Peace (Vision of Humanity), Uzbekistan ranks first among 121 countries worldwide in perceived personal safety.

The index is based on data from the World Risk Poll and measures people's perception of safety in everyday life rather than official crime statistics.

This achievement reflects the effectiveness of Uzbekistan's ongoing reforms aimed at strengthening public security, modernizing infrastructure, expanding digital public services and pursuing a policy of openness.

Today, Uzbekistan continues to strengthen its position as one of Central Asia's most attractive destinations for tourism, investment and international partnership. Visa liberalization, improved connectivity, modern infrastructure and the country's renowned hospitality have created a welcoming environment for visitors from around the world.

International experts increasingly recognize that the perception of safety has become one of the most important factors shaping travel decisions. In this context, Uzbekistan's leading position in the Safety Perceptions Index 2023 reinforces the country's reputation as a reliable, secure and welcoming destination.

Combining the legacy of the ancient Silk Road with modern development, openness and social stability, Uzbekistan offers a unique environment where history, innovation and security come together.

Uzbekistan — a country of trust, stability and opportunity.
