At this time, most international airlines have suspended flights to Iran or reduced their frequency, which may lead to frequent changes in the schedule. If you are unable to depart, there is an option to leave by land through neighboring countries.
Kyrgyz citizens can enter Armenia and Turkey without visas. However, for entry into Turkmenistan, it is necessary to contact the Kyrgyz Embassy in that country in advance to obtain a visa and entry permission.
