Location

Kulob, Tajikistan

Kulob International Airport (IATA: TJU, ICAO: UTDK) is a regional airport located in Kulob, a city in the Khatlon Region of southern Tajikistan. It serves as one of the country's secondary international airports, handling limited domestic and occasional international traffic. The airport operates modest passenger volumes, primarily connecting Kulob with the capital Dushanbe and supporting regional connectivity within Tajikistan. Its infrastructure reflects its role as a smaller regional hub rather than a major international facility. Given Kulob's geographic position in southern Tajikistan, the airport plays an important role in linking the region to the rest of the country, particularly given the mountainous terrain that makes road travel time-consuming.

Terminals

The airport has a single small terminal building handling both domestic and limited international passengers.
