The ASAN visa, often known as the electronic visa for Azerbaijan, was launched in 2017.

Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, only people from 39 countries are currently permitted to use it, despite the fact that it was initially designed for residents of over 90 nations.

British nationals must currently apply for an online visa to Azerbaijan in order to travel and enter the country.

Travelers from the United Kingdom can quickly and easily receive an online travel authorization with the e-visa to Azerbaijan without having to get in touch with an embassy or consulate.

How to Apply for ASAN Visa for Azerbaijan?

UK travelers must remember that an ASAN visa is a single-entry, short-term visa. As soon as a traveler arrives at their chosen port of entry, immigration officers will check their authorized electronic visa and other travel documents before allowing them access into Azerbaijan.

British nationals can apply for an Azerbaijan ASAN visa quickly and easily, and the process takes only a few minutes. Three steps are included in the visa application process:

·      Completing the application (available online)

·      Paying the processing fee for an ASAN visa (depends upon the traveler)

·      Submitting necessary documents

Azerbaijan Visa Requirements For UK Citizens 2022

A few essential requirements must be met in order to obtain an electronic visa for Azerbaijan. The prerequisites for British citizens are as follows:

Valid Passport

The most crucial piece of documentation for a visa application is a passport. The electronic passport version is also necessary because the UK applicant is submitting their application online. If you intend to apply for an e-visa, we advise that you have a copy of your passport scanned. Your passport's validity is still another crucial factor. Remember that you must have a passport that is valid for at least six months in order to successfully apply for a visa.

Active Email Address

Having a working email address is one of the primary prerequisites for UK nationals seeking an Azerbaijan visa. Your accurate email address must be entered in the application form. The email address is crucial since it serves as your primary means of communication with the authorities. Please take note that the email address you provided on your application form will be used to send you your e-visa.

Online Visa Fee Payment

You need to pay the fee before submitting your application. You have the option of paying with a debit or credit card. It is crucial to complete this step; otherwise, your online visa application will not be deemed successful.

& Fully vaccinated against covid-19

After the e-visa application has been submitted, immigration officers will evaluate the traveler's documents and eligibility. After a comprehensive examination, they will decide whether or not to approve the visa. If the ASAN visa is approved, the PDF document will be sent directly to the traveler's email inbox. Citizens of the United Kingdom must preserve the digital copy of their approved visa and print it off. They are required to display it upon entering Azerbaijan.

Types of Azerbaijan Visa for UK Nationals

British nationals can obtain one of two Azerbaijani e-Visas:

·      Tourist e-visa: Travelers can apply for a tourist e-visa, which is an ordinary visa, if their trip is for tourism, a family visit, to attend sporting or cultural events, or to receive medical care.

·      Business e-visa: As the name implies, this type of visa is available for quick business travel as well as participation in conferences and meetings. However, it should be highlighted that UK citizens cannot seek employment in Azerbaijan using their business e-visa. You can apply for a work visa through the Azerbaijani embassy or consulate if you want to work in Azerbaijan.

How To Extend ASAN Visa for Azerbaijan?

The single-entry electronic visa for Azerbaijan is travel permission. You must submit an application from outside Azerbaijan if you want to prolong your stay. Legal repercussions for exceeding the validity of your e-visa include a fine and/or a travel ban.
