Azerbaijan Ultimate Travel Guide for SERBIA Citizens

Are you planning to travel from the historic fortress of Belgrade or the vibrant streets of Novi Sad to the shores of the Caspian Sea? For citizens of SERBIA, visiting Azerbaijan in 2026 is an incredibly simple process. Thanks to a mutual visa-free agreement, Serbian travelers can explore the "Land of Fire" with minimal paperwork.

Why SERBIA Citizens Have an Advantage

In 2026, holders of an ordinary SERBIA passport are exempt from visa requirements for short-term visits. This means you do not need to apply for an e-visa or wait in lines for a Visa on Arrival at the airport.

Core Entry Information for 2026:

• Visa Status: Visa-Free.

• Permitted Stay: Up to 90 days within any 180-day period.

• Purpose of Visit: Tourism, business, or visiting relatives.

• Entry Method: Valid Serbian passport required.

What if I Still Want an E-Visa?

While Serbian citizens are generally visa-free, some travelers prefer to have a formal document for specific administrative or long-term business tracking. If you choose to process an official entry document through our portal, the following rates apply for 2026:

1. Standard Processing: * Time: 3 business days.
   Fee: 80 USD.

2. Urgent Processing: * Time: 3 hours.
   Fee: 150 USD.

Essential Passport Requirements

To ensure a smooth entry at the border, your SERBIA passport must meet these standards:

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

• Air Travel Only: A critical note for 2026—Azerbaijan's land borders remain closed to passenger traffic under the special quarantine regime. You must arrive by air at Heydar Aliyev International Airport (GYD).

• Blank Pages: Ensure you have space for entry and exit stamps.

The Mandatory 15-Day Registration Rule

This is the most important legal step for Serbian citizens staying for more than two weeks. If your stay in Azerbaijan exceeds 15 days, you must register with the State Migration Service.

• How it works: Hotels usually handle this automatically. If you are staying in private accommodation, your host must register you via the migration portal.

• Cost: This is a free service.

• Penalty: Failing to register before the 15th day can lead to significant fines (300-400 AZN) and complications when leaving the country.
