Nonimmigrant Visas

The Consular Section issues nonimmigrant visas to those applicants who plan to go to the United States for a temporary stay and who meet all other requirements under U.S. immigration law.

While we are able to accept applications from individuals who are in Azerbaijan temporarily, applicants who do not reside in Azerbaijan have the best chance for visa issuance if they apply in their home country.

Announcement: Starting September 1st, 2009 the U.S. Embassy in Baku will accept visa applications from citizens of Iran and other third country-nationals not resident in Azerbaijan only on the first Thursday of each month. If you make an appointment for any other day of the month, it will be cancelled without any notice.    

Please note: If you do not speak English or a language commonly spoken in this country, you should be aware that language difficulties and interviewing officers' unfamiliarity with local conditions in your country may make it more difficult to demonstrate your qualifications for a visa.
