Key points

Ukrainians and tourists from other countries are allowed to enter the territory of Azerbaijan only by air transport. The ban on crossing land borders has been in effect since April 2020, except for cargo transportation, due to quarantine restrictions.

Upon entering Azerbaijan within 15 days, you must register with the State Migration Service by submitting a questionnaire on the website migration.gov . If this is not done, there will be a fine in the amount of 175 to 300 dollars. And if your trip lasts less than 15 days, you do not need to register.
