Get Your Azerbaijan Visa in the comfort of your home!
Azerbaijan's capital, Baku, was once an off-the-beaten-track destination only known to the most adventurous backpackers and business travelers. But nowadays, it is a fascinating destination where East literally meets West. In January 2017, the Republic of Azerbaijan introduced an electronic visa for more than 90 nationalities.
The Azerbaijan e-visa is a travel document required for most visitors to enter Azerbaijan for tourist purposes. This new e-visa system makes traveling to Azerbaijan much easier, as there is no need to visit the Azerbaijan embassy to obtain the document. Apply for your Azerbaijan visa in a few clicks with iVisa.com.
What is the Azerbaijan e-visa?
The Azerbaijan e-visa is an official document authorizing travel to this Middle Eastern country and is electronically linked to your passport. This visa is a pre-entry authorization to enter the Republic of Azerbaijan.
This system is also called ASAN Visa and issues single-entry visas for up to 30 days stay in Azerbaijan. You will not receive a sticker or paper visa in your passport.
Who is eligible to apply for the Azerbaijan Electronic Visa?
Nationals from over 90 countries can apply for an Azerbaijan visa online on iVisa. If you have any doubts about what document you need to enter Azerbaijan, you can use our visa checker tool at the top of this page to find out more.
How long is the Azerbaijan Visa valid for?
After the e-visa has been issued, you must enter Azerbaijan within 90 days after issued. It is a Single entry visa, meaning you can only enter one time within this period and stay in the country for up to 30 days in total. If you leave Azerbaijan after a week, for example, you will need to obtain a new e-visa to re-enter the country.
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.

Questions?
Can I change a visit visa to a work visa while in Azerbaijan?
Tricia L, USA | July 1, 2024
I’m flying from New York to Azerbaijan in the next week for what was supposed to be a week-long vacation. But now I might have a chance to work on a project there that could require me to stay longer than planned. Is it possible to change my visit visa to a work visa after I arrive in Baku, or should I handle this back in the States before I leave?
Cami, iVisa | July 3, 2024
After you arrive in Baku with a tourist visa, you can't directly convert it to a work visa. The process of obtaining a work visa requires an application to be filed by an employer in Azerbaijan who must demonstrate that the position cannot be filled by local workers. If you have found work, your employer would need to undertake this process on your behalf. You should handle this before you leave the States if possible, to avoid complications once you're in Azerbaijan.
Which passport pages should I scan for the application?
Fatima K, Pakistan | July 13, 2024
I’ve been invited by friends to visit Quba in Azerbaijan. When I’m applying for the eVisa, should I just scan the photo page of the passport or do I need to include the observations page as well?
Cami, iVisa | July 15, 2024
For your eVisa application, you only need to scan the photo page of your passport. The observations page isn't required. Make sure your passport scan is clear and that the details are easily readable to avoid any delays or issues with your eVisa approval.
Can I enter Azerbaijan earlier than the stated visa arrival date?
Arun B, India | July 25, 2024
I’m taking off from Chennai to Azerbaijan early next month, with a layover in Delhi. The flight takes off late on the 3rd and lands me in Azerbaijan just after midnight on the 4th. Now, my eVisa starts on the 4th, but with all the time zone gymnastics, I'll be touching down at 23:35 local time on the 3rd. Could this cause any issues when I try to board in Chennai or when I land?
Martin, iVisa | July 27, 2024
Your eVisa has to be valid at the time of your entry into the country. Since your visa starts on the 4th and you arrive just before midnight on the 3rd, this could indeed pose a problem. If possible, try and adjust your travel plans to ensure that your eVisa is valid when you land, or you might face difficulties boarding in Chennai or entering Azerbaijan. If you can’t change your plans, please contact the airline to confirm the best course of action.
