Translation, timing and embassy

Is Azerbaijani or Russian translation needed?

For e-visa or the visa application, translation of Swedish documents is normally not required. The application is filled in English. The invitation should be in English or Azerbaijani. If you have Swedish documents to be used in Azerbaijan after entry (e.g. for work), authorized translation may be needed separately.

Timeline for an Azerbaijan visa

E-visas are usually approved within 1 to 3 business days. Embassy visas take 7 to 14 business days. Azerbaijani authorities always determine the final processing time. The total is affected by:

whether the photo has exactly the right format (white background)
whether the passport is valid at least 6 months
whether the application is complete without errors
peak season and queue at Azerbaijani authorities
whether the application is supplemented
post for embassy visa

The Azerbaijani Embassy in Stockholm
