Doha's modern skyscrapers and the West Bay district — visa for Qatar

Visa-free travel

Qatar Visa

Visa-free entry with a stay of up to 30 days.

Azerbaijani citizens can travel to Qatar without a visa. Under the agreement you may stay in the country for up to 30 days on an ordinary passport. At entry, officers check that the passport has six months of validity left.

At the border you may be asked for a return ticket and a hotel booking. If you want to work or stay long-term, a separate residence document must be arranged through an employer.

Doha is chosen both for transit and for short city breaks; the museums, Souq Waqif and the corniche are the main points of interest. There is a direct flight on the Baku–Doha route. Viza.az helps with the choice of tickets, hotels and transfers.
