150th in tourist arrivals and it accounts for 0,2% of the total flow. (this indicator with the available material and technical base can reach 2.2%).

Remarkable dates:
1993
Membership in UNWTO
1994
Samarkand Declaration on Silk Road Tourism
2002
Bukhara Declaration on Silk Road Tourism

11. The need for special cooperation under UNWTO…
it is time to reform institutional structure of European Commission by separating one of the unique component of it. Central Asian states are not considered to be part of Europe neither from geographical point of view nor logically. Hence, it is time to extend the reach of UNWTO’s sphere of cooperation by establishing Regional Commission for Central Asia

12. Multi-visa system:

13. Conclusion and Proposals:
it is difficult to overestimate the role of legal and institutional mechanisms for regulating the diverse relationships of subjects of the tourist market both inside the country and outside it.
it is time to reform the structure of the UNWTO by organizing special institute for Central Asian countries
placement its headquarter in Uzbekistan, a heart of ancient Great Silk Road.
And it is time to promote legal and practical issues for multi-visa cooperation system in Central Asia region
