Documents for the Azerbaijan e-visa (ASAN Visa)

Indians visiting Azerbaijan for tourism need an e-visa issued through evisa.gov.az, the official portal. It is a single-entry visa that allows up to 30 days in the country. The portal asks you to type your details directly into the system rather than build a big document file. The e-visa arrives by email as an A4 form with a machine-readable code. The border officer still makes the final decision on entry.

Common mistakes Indian travellers make

Most problems come from typing errors, timing, and assumptions about land borders.

Typing the passport number or name wrongly. Copy the details from the passport bio page and check twice before paying. A wrong e-visa cannot be edited, so you would need to apply and pay again.
Applying on a look-alike website. Use only evisa.gov.az. Other sites with similar names charge extra or never file the application.
Leaving it to the last day. Standard processing takes up to 3 working days. Apply a week ahead, or choose urgent processing, which is done within 3 hours even on holidays.
Planning to cross by road from Georgia. Ordinary land entry has stayed closed under Azerbaijan's special quarantine regime, now extended to 2 January 2027. Book a flight into Baku.
Forgetting to register on a longer trip. If you stay more than 15 days, register with the State Migration Service within 15 days of arrival. It is free online.
Passport too close to expiry. Your passport must stay valid at least 3 months after the e-visa expiry date. Renew before you apply.
