If you're a foreigner who is visiting Kyrgyzstan for a short-term stay, you will not be asked about your HIV status. However, if you plan to stay in Kyrgyzstan for a month or longer, the laws around HIV status and foreigners are a bit murky. Technically speaking, if you're a foreigner and you stay in Kyrgyzstan for over 30 days, you must show proof that you are HIV negative. However, according to sources, this law does not appear to be actively enforced. It is important to note that enforcement can begin at any time.<ref>[http://www.hivtravel.org/Default.aspx?PageId=143&CountryId=102 KYRGYZSTAN - REGULATIONS ON ENTRY, STAY AND RESIDENCE FOR PLHIV]</ref> | |||
