A mutual visa exemption agreement between Azerbaijan and China took effect on Wednesday (16 July), allowing ordinary passport holders to travel without a visa for short stays. The move marks a milestone in bilateral relations, strengthening tourism, business, and cultural ties.
The agreement, signed during President Ilham Aliyev’s state visit to China in April 2025, permits citizens of both countries to visit for up to 30 days per entry, not exceeding 90 days within a 180-day period.
The visa waiver applies to holders of valid ordinary passports and aims to deepen strategic cooperation between Baku and Beijing.
Officials and analysts expect the agreement to significantly boost tourism flows, enhance business connectivity, and foster greater people-to-people exchanges.
It also reflects the growing partnership between the two countries across diplomatic, economic, and infrastructure sectors.
