We review your application

The Azerbaijan eVisa system is known for being strict – your photo must be the right size, and your passport scan must be clear.

Don’t worry – we review your whole application to catch anything that might cause delays. One of our experts checks everything for errors or missing information to make sure it’s ready to go. This review is quick but thorough.

We submit it for government processing

We’re not the Azerbaijani government, but we submit your application to them and are here for you along the way if there are any problems.

Get your Azerbaijan eVisa

We’ll email your approved eVisa and let you know how to use it for your trip.

💡Pro-tip: When applying for your Azerbaijan eVisa, double-check your travel dates. The eVisa is date-specific and can’t be used outside your selected travel window.

Azerbaijan visa policy

Most foreign nationals must obtain a visa before traveling to Azerbaijan for tourism, business, medical treatment, study, work, or other purposes. Azerbaijan offers a Visa on Arrival (VoA) service at international airports for citizens of 15 countries, including Japan, South Korea, Israel, and several GCC nations. Citizens of most CIS countries, Turkey, and China don't require a visa for short stays.

Foreigners staying in Azerbaijan for over 15 days (30 days for Kazakh citizens) must register their place of stay. Registration can be done within the first 15 days via the State Migration Service’s website, by email, or in person at regional migration offices or ASAN service centers.

FAQs

How long is my Azerbaijan visa valid for?

This depends on the visa you’re issued. If you’re unclear, you can contact us on WhatsApp – we're available 24/7.

How long does the Azerbaijan eVisa take to process, and when should I apply?

Most travelers receive their Azerbaijan eVisa within 3 business days.

However, delays can occasionally occur, so apply at least two weeks before your trip.

Can I apply for a Azerbaijan multiple-entry eVisa?

Azerbaijan doesn’t offer a multiple-entry visa. The standard eVisa is single-entry only, permitting one 30-day stay. You must apply for a new visa every time you want to travel to Azerbaijan.

How do I apply for an Azerbaijan visa?

You can apply for your eVisa through the government or iVisa (or download our mobile app). Supporting documents like your passport, photo, and purpose of travel are required.

What are common reasons Azerbaijan eVisas get rejected?

Accuracy is essential, especially spelling, passport details, expiry dates, and photo quality.

Rejections often happen due to mismatched info or unreadable passport scans. If your visa is rejected, you can reapply, but fees are usually non-refundable.

When applying through iVisa, you get a full review by one of our experts of your application to avoid errors, for your peace of mind.

What happens if I overstay my Azerbaijan visa?

Overstaying can lead to visa cancellation, fines, or bans on future travel to Azerbaijan. It's important to leave the country before your visa expires or apply for an extension if eligible.

Do I have to register after I arrive in Azerbaijan?

Yes, if you stay longer than 15 days, you must register your accommodation with the State Migration Service within that timeframe (Kazakhs have a 30-day rule). Registration is free and often handled by your hotel or landlord, but failure to register could result in fines when you leave, so make sure to double-check.
