The first state bus departed from Tashkent to Dushanbe

A new stage of transport links between Tashkent and Dushanbe has begun. Now, the first state bus service has been launched on the international route connecting the two capitals. This innovation is significant primarily because it provides a more convenient, safe, and fully legal international transportation service for passengers. It was reported that a new international sleeping bus service between Tashkent and Dushanbe was launched on February 25, 2026.
It is reported that the new route is organized in the form of a bed bus, not a regular bus. This makes long journeys much easier, especially at night, and creates greater convenience for passengers. The average travel time is 15-17 hours. This means that this route is not a fast one, but it can become a suitable option for those who prioritize comfort and stability.
The route will run through the Tashkent - Sariosiyo - Dushanbe Central Station. This means that the trip will cover not only two cities, but also important transit points along the route. Such an official route between the two neighboring countries not only facilitates passenger travel but also opens up a much more convenient opportunity for regional contacts, trade, and family visits.
Of course, since the route is international, the trip differs from regular domestic travel. The border is crossed, and a passport for travel abroad is required for each passenger. Therefore, it is very important to prepare documents before traveling. This is not a simple recommendation - it is one of the main conditions for smooth border crossing.
For now, the flight schedule is also clearly defined. Buses depart from Tashkent on Tuesdays and Fridays. Return from Dushanbe will take place on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 1:00 PM. Such a stable schedule allows passengers to plan their trip in advance and properly organize business or personal trips.
In short, the launch of the Tashkent-Dushanbe international bus route has become another important manifestation of practical rapprochement between the two countries. In particular, public transportation in a sleeping format makes a long journey somewhat easier, more orderly, and safer. For passengers, the most important thing remains to follow traffic rules and prepare travel documents in advance.
