Azerbaijan Ultimate E-Visa Guide for VIETNAM Citizens

Are you planning to travel from the bustling streets of Hanoi or Ho Chi Minh City to the "Land of Fire"? For citizens of VIETNAM, visiting Azerbaijan in 2026 is a 100% digital and efficient process. Using the ASAN Visa system, Vietnamese travelers can secure their entry permit online, making the journey from Southeast Asia to the Caucasus smoother than ever.

Why VIETNAM Citizens Need the ASAN Visa

As an eligible country for Azerbaijan's electronic visa program, holders of an ordinary VIETNAM passport are required to obtain an e-visa before arrival. This system replaces the need for embassy visits, allowing you to handle the entire application from your home.

Core Visa Information for 2026:

• Visa Type: Single Entry (valid for one entry only).

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

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

Processing Times and Fees (2026 Site Rates)

We offer two specialized processing options to fit your travel schedule from VIETNAM. Note our updated service fees for 2026:

Essential Passport Requirements

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

• The 6-Month Rule: Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your intended arrival date.

• High-Quality Scan: You must upload a clear, color scan of your passport's bio-data page. Avoid glare or blurry images.

• Blank Pages: Ensure you have at least one blank page for entry and exit stamps at the airport.

2026 Critical Update: Arrival & Land Borders

As of the latest government decree, Azerbaijan’s special quarantine regime has been extended. Land borders remain closed to passenger traffic until April 1, 2026.

• Travel Recommendation: Vietnamese 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 in 2026: if your stay in Azerbaijan exceeds 15 days, you are legally required to register with the State Migration Service.

• How it works: Most hotels in Baku will handle this for you. If you are staying in a private rental (Airbnb), your host must register you online.

• Cost: This is a free service, but failing to do so can result in significant fines (approx. 300-400 AZN) or issues when you depart.
