Expats required to register with Azeri gov’t
Foreign nationals or persons without citizenship will be forbidden to live in Azerbaijan without being registered with the authorities. The Milli Majlis (parliament) introduced respective changes to the Administrative Offenses Code on Friday.
From now onward, foreign citizens who have failed to report their stay in the country or obtain the required visas will face deportation or fines worth 300 to 400 manats (up to $500), with the exception of cases reflected in pertinent international agreements.
Under another amendment introduced to the Code, Azerbaijani executive officials will face administrative penalties in case the rules on foreigners’ stay in the country are violated.*
