Do you need an Azerbaijan tourist visa?
British passport holders need a visa to visit Azerbaijan, applied for online as an eVisa through Azerbaijan's official ASAN Visa system.
What an Azerbaijan tourist visa covers
An Azerbaijan tourist visa is for holidays, sightseeing and visiting family or friends in Azerbaijan. It doesn't cover business meetings or paid work. If you're travelling for business, see our Azerbaijan business visa page.
UK residents on other passports
UK residents on other passports usually apply the same way, unless their nationality is exempt.
Azerbaijan tourist visa help from Manchester
We're based in Manchester city centre and handle Azerbaijan tourist visa applications for travellers across the UK, entirely online. Before you travel, read the UK government's foreign travel advice for Azerbaijan.
Before you travel to Azerbaijan
Check the UK government’s travel advice for Azerbaijan before you book, and again shortly before you go. It covers safety, local laws, health risks and the latest entry rules.
- Passport: most countries expect it to be valid for at least six months after you arrive, with blank pages for stamps. If yours is close to expiry, renew it first.
- Health: check the NHS fitfortravel website for Azerbaijan at least eight weeks before you travel, in case you need vaccinations or malaria tablets. Some countries ask for a yellow fever certificate if you’ve recently been somewhere with yellow fever.
- Insurance: take out travel insurance that covers medical treatment and getting you home, and check it’s valid for Azerbaijan.
- Bookings: carry copies of your return ticket and accommodation, as border officers can ask to see them.
We go through the entry requirements for your passport when we prepare your application, so you know exactly what to carry.
