Do I need a visa for Uzbekistan from the Netherlands?
No. The rule follows the passport, not the departure airport: flying from the Netherlands makes no difference on its own. Dutch citizens do not need a visa to visit Uzbekistan as tourists and stay up to 30 days. There is no application and no fee, and you are admitted on arrival. Passport validity required: valid for period of stay.
The arrangement is not reciprocal. Dutch citizens travel to Uzbekistan without a visa, but Uzbekistan passport holders coming the other way need a visa for the Netherlands — worth knowing before you plan a trip with someone who holds the other passport.
