Azerbaijan Ultimate E-Visa Guide for LITHUANIA Citizens

Are you planning to travel from the Baltic shores of Vilnius or Kaunas to the modern and windy city of Baku? For citizens of LITHUANIA, visiting Azerbaijan in 2025 is a quick and entirely digital experience. Thanks to the ASAN Visa system, you can obtain your travel authorization online, ensuring your journey from the Baltic states to the "Land of Fire" is completely stress-free.

Why LITHUANIA Citizens Need the ASAN Visa

As an EU member state, LITHUANIA is on the list of eligible countries for Azerbaijan's electronic visa. This means Lithuanian passport holders do not need to visit an embassy or send off their physical passports. You can apply for tourism, business, or cultural visits from any device with an internet connection.

Core Visa Information for 2025:

• Visa Type: Single Entry.

• Validity Period: 90 Days (the window you have to enter Azerbaijan).

• Maximum Stay: Up to 30 days within the country.

Processing Times: Choose Your Speed

Depending on your travel urgency from LITHUANIA, the ASAN system offers two primary processing speeds:

1. Standard E-Visa: Typically issued within 3 business days. This is the most popular choice for planned vacations.

2. Urgent E-Visa: For last-minute departures or emergency business trips, the urgent option is processed in just 3 hours, functioning 24/7, including weekends and public holidays.

Essential Passport Requirements

To ensure a 100% approval rate, your LITHUANIA passport must meet these standards:

• The 3-Month Rule: Your passport must be valid for at least 3 months after your e-visa expires. However, we strongly recommend having at least 6 months of validity from your arrival date.

• High-Quality Scan: You must upload a clear, color scan of your passport's bio-page. The system is automated; blurry images or glare from a camera flash will lead to an automatic rejection.

The Mandatory 15-Day Registration Rule

This is a critical legal requirement: if your stay in Azerbaijan exceeds 15 days, you are legally required to register with the State Migration Service.

• Pro Tip: Most hotels in Baku will handle this for you upon check-in. However, if you are staying in a private apartment or with friends, your host must register you online. It is a free service, but failing to do so can result in significant fines (approx. 300-400 AZN) when you depart.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Is it mandatory to print the E-Visa for citizens of LITHUANIA?

Yes! You must print a physical hard copy of your e-visa. Azerbaijani border officials require the paper version to be presented along with your LITHUANIA passport. Digital copies on phones are not sufficient for entry.

2. Can I enter Azerbaijan more than once with the same visa?

No. The ASAN E-Visa is a single-entry permit. If you leave Azerbaijan to visit a neighboring country like Georgia, your visa will expire immediately. You would need a new visa to re-enter.

3. What if I am a resident of Lithuania but hold a different nationality?

The e-visa eligibility is based on your citizenship (passport), not your residence permit. If you are not a Lithuanian citizen, you must check if your specific country is on the ASAN Visa eligibility list.
