Short-stay visa for foreigners passing through Azerbaijan to a third country, valid for 30 days with up to 5-day stay.
The Transit Visa (Tranzit Viza) is a specialized short-stay authorization established under the Migration Code of the Republic of Azerbaijan to regulate the movement of foreign nationals and stateless persons passing through the country. It fills the critical gap for travelers who are not entering Azerbaijan as their final destination but require legal permission to traverse its territory, whether by air, land, or sea, while en route to a third country. It ensures border security while facilitating international transit.
This visa is intended for travelers with confirmed onward travel arrangements to a destination outside of Azerbaijan. It is ideal for individuals on connecting international flights or those traveling overland who need to stop briefly in the country. A distinctive feature of this visa is its limited duration—typically allowing a stay of up to 5 days—and the requirement to provide proof of travel documentation for the final destination, ensuring it is used strictly for transit purposes rather than tourism or employment.
