Can a Russian citizen go to Uzbekistan (Tashkent) via Tajikistan (Khujad) by road without a visa, having a return air ticket from Tashkent to Moscow?

Responds information department of "Subtlety of Tourism"
The Republic of Uzbekistan provides visa-free entry for citizens of the Russian Federation for 60 days. At the same time, it is important to remember that a general Russian passport for visiting Uzbekistan is not enough, a passport is required at the border.

Transit travel through Tajikistan is permitted if there are tickets and other documents valid for entry into the neighboring state with the Republic. At the same time, the travel documents must bear the date of departure from the transfer point to the territory of the Republic of Tajikistan.

Despite the fact that the Republic of Tajikistan has a visa-free entry regime with all CIS countries except Uzbekistan (and Turkmenistan), the transit of Russian citizens through its territory to the Republic of Uzbekistan in the presence of a passport does not violate any norms. You do not need a visa.
