The government of Azerbaijan has lifted advance visa requirements for the citizens of the five GCC countries, as well as Japan, Malaysia, China, South Korea and Singapore.
The policy took effect three months after UAE citizens were exempted from applying for advance visas to Azerbaijan in November of last year.
The President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev, approved the visa waivers for the listed countries, while Azerbaijan Minister of Culture and Tourism of the Republic Abulfas Garayev monitored the process.
“This is a historical milestone in our relationship with these countries. We are pleased to inform the public, travel trade companies and those planning to visit Azerbaijan that they can enter the country and enjoy the historical sites and its beautiful landscaping,” Garayev said.
