الأهم

- Staying longer than 30 days? Register online with the State Registration Service within 5 days of entry, or leave before day 30.
- Russian Mir cards don't work in Kyrgyzstan (since April 2024); bring USD/EUR/RUB cash or a non-Russian card.
- Some common Western over-the-counter medicines can cause problems at customs — carry prescriptions and declare medicines.
- Mountain trips: weather changes fast, rescue is limited and roads close in winter; tell someone your route.
