Azerbaijan Visa for UK Citizens

Travelers from the UK can apply for an ASAN visa – it is an electronic visa designed for short-term stays introduced in 2017 by the Azerbaijani government. An Azerbaijan e-Visa is valid for 90 days and allows you to stay in the country for 30 days.

The e-Visa system was launched in order to make the process of applying for a visa easier and smoother. You just need to have a valid passport, an electronic device with an internet connection, and access to the payment method.

It won’t take you a lot of time to complete the form and obtain a visa via email in PDF form. The visa costs 119 USD, and the whole process is done entirely online, so you don’t need to visit the embassy or consulate.

An approved electronic visa can be used for purposes such as tourism, family/friends visits, attending events (sports, culture, science), business meetings, medical treatments, official trips, humanitarian reasons, labor (not paid), education, and transit.
