Azerbaijan e-Visa for Turkmen Citizens
Travelling to Azerbaijan with a Turkmen ordinary passport starts with an advance visa check. Turkmen citizens are eligible for an e-Visa. Prepare the passport you will carry, verify the Latin-script spelling of your details and choose your processing option around the date you expect to enter Azerbaijan.

The short answer
Do Turkmen citizens need an Azerbaijan visa?
Turkmen ordinary-passport holders normally need a visa and can apply for an Azerbaijan e-Visa. The visa exemption for certain diplomatic and service passports is not a general exemption for Turkmen tourists. Eligibility depends on the document used for travel, while a qualifying residence permit or special travel category may require a separate assessment of the entry route.
Before you start
Three checks for your Turkmen passport
Ordinary and official passports differ
Use this application for an ordinary passport. A diplomatic or service-passport arrangement does not automatically extend to a tourist's ordinary document.
Follow the passport spelling
Use the Latin-script names printed in the travel document, rather than an alternative spelling from a local record or an informal translation.
A visa is separate from transport permission
Check the entry point and carrier for your itinerary. Receiving an e-Visa does not by itself establish that a particular ferry, flight or border crossing is available.

Confirm which Turkmen passport you will use
Begin with the physical passport, not your job title or the purpose described by a travel organiser. A business visit on an ordinary passport is still an ordinary-passport application. If you hold a diplomatic, service or other special travel document, establish the applicable route instead of selecting the ordinary category to pass through the form.
A consular visa remains a separate option when the planned journey does not fit the e-Visa route. Humanitarian fee arrangements also have their own eligibility and channel; they do not turn all Turkmen short visits into visa-free travel. Confirm a particular exemption before buying a service on that assumption.
Keep Latin-script names consistent
Compare the Latin-script given names and surname on the passport with the names entered in the application. A name written differently in a local-language document, a previous passport or a booking profile can introduce avoidable differences. Do not retranslate a name that is already printed in the travel document.
Preserve the distinction between your surname, given names and any other information shown separately. If a name or character cannot be entered as printed, request guidance before submission. Check the completed fields against the photo page again after using passport-scan assistance; automatic reading should be reviewed, not treated as a final identity check.
Start with Turkmenistan already selected.
Plan the Azerbaijan entry date and transport separately
Use your intended arrival in Azerbaijan as the application date reference. If a journey includes a connection or a sea crossing, the departure date from Turkmenistan may not be the same calendar day. Confirm the itinerary before selecting a date, especially if a carrier's schedule is provisional.
Do not interpret possession of an e-Visa as confirmation that a particular border point accepts your planned journey. Ask the carrier and relevant authorities about the route itself. The visa application concerns your permission to seek entry; transport availability, transit permissions and entry-point arrangements are separate checks.
Prepare a readable application for each traveller
Photograph or scan the passport photo page on a flat surface with even lighting. Keep the document edges in frame and inspect the passport number, dates and small print at full size. A clear filename is helpful for organising a family trip, but you should also open the image to make sure it belongs to the applicant.
Have your actual residential address, Azerbaijan accommodation address, email and telephone ready. Use an inbox you can access outside your home country. Before choosing urgency, allow time to resolve a spelling question or replace a blurred upload. Once a visa is issued, compare it with the same passport and carry the required printed copy with that document.
Keep these to hand
Your Turkmen passport application checklist
- Turkmen ordinary passport selected as the travel document.
- Latin-script names, passport number and dates copied from the photo page.
- Clear full photo-page scan or photograph checked at readable size.
- Planned Azerbaijan arrival, entry route and accommodation address.
- Reachable contact details and an individual review for each traveller.
Check passport expiry against the visa's expiry date: the passport must remain valid for at least three months after that date. The 90-day visa window does not allow a 90-day stay; the maximum stay is 30 days.

Before you apply
Questions from Turkmen travellers
Does a Turkmen ordinary passport allow visa-free tourism?
It is not covered by a general ordinary-passport tourist waiver. Turkmenistan is included in the e-Visa eligible countries, so an advance online application is an available route for a suitable visit.
Which spelling should I use if my documents differ?
Use the Latin-script names in the passport that will accompany your Azerbaijan journey. Do not substitute an informal transliteration or copy another document without comparing it with that passport.
Does the e-Visa confirm a Caspian ferry itinerary?
No. Confirm the specific transport service and entry arrangements separately. An e-Visa does not verify sailing times, passenger acceptance or the operation of a border crossing.
Can I use the same application details for my family?
Shared accommodation may be relevant to everyone, but each traveller's identity, passport and travel-document image must be checked individually. Do not reuse a relative's passport number or upload.
What are the Standard and Urgent package prices for Turkmen applicants?
The Standard package is $59 USD per applicant; Urgent is $99 USD per applicant. These are the total evis.az application service package prices. Choose either package to carry its processing option and total into the application form.
