2026 Critical Update: Land Border Closures

• Travel Recommendation: Vatican citizens should plan to arrive by air at Heydar Aliyev International Airport (GYD) in Baku.

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.

• How to register: Hotels in Baku will handle this for you upon check-in. If you are staying in a private residence, your host must register you online.

• Cost: This is a free service, but failing to do so can result in fines when you attempt to depart.
