On January 25, 2023, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan launched the "Visa Application Form Portal" (http://www.visaapplication.mfa.gov.az) for the use of foreign nationals and stateless persons intending to visit the Republic of Azerbaijan.
In accordance with Article 37 of the Migration Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan and the “List of Types of Electronic Services” approved by the Decree of the Cabinet of Ministers of the Republic of Azerbaijan No. 235, dated October 17, 2012, the aforementioned electronic information resource allows foreign nationals or stateless persons wishing to visit Azerbaijan to fill out and submit a visa application form electronically, which can then be approved and sent to Azerbaijan’s diplomatic missions and consulates for processing.
The introduction of this new electronic information system will reduce the processing time for visa applications, ensure that the visa application form is fully completed electronically, allow for the electronic submission of certain documents required for visa processing, and ultimately increase the efficiency of providing relevant government services.
The "Visa Application Form Portal" is applicable to visa applications accepted through Azerbaijan's diplomatic missions and consulates abroad, as well as through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The issuance of electronic visas is carried out through the "ASAN Visa" system portal and should be distinguished from the electronic information system launched by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Additional information about the "Visa Application Form Portal" can be found on the website http://www.visaapplication.mfa.gov.az.
