Requirements for Irish Applicants

To ensure your application is processed smoothly, please have the following ready:

2. Digital Passport Scan: A clear, high-quality color photo or scan of your passport’s biographical (photo) page.

Important Note on the 15-Day Rule

If you plan to stay in Azerbaijan for more than 15 days, you are legally required to register your stay with the State Migration Service. Most major hotels in Baku will handle this for you upon check-in. However, if you are staying in a private residence, Airbnb, or with friends, please ensure your host completes this mandatory registration within the first 15 days to avoid administrative fines upon departure.
