It's important to note that visa requirements and fees are subject to change at any time, so it's always a good idea to double-check with the embassy or through the website Azerbaijan Immigration Services. Additionally, it's important to ensure that you have all the necessary documents and information required for your visa application to avoid any delays or complications.

As of now, travelers are able to get their Azerbaijan visas in a maximum of three business days. Let Azerbaijan Immigration Services give you some general information that might help you plan your trip.

• Firstly, you need to decide which type of visa you require. Azerbaijan offers different types of visas, including tourist visas, business visas, and treatment visas. 
• Secondly, there are two ways to apply for an Azerbaijani visa: online or through an embassy. If you choose to apply online, you can submit your application through the website Azerbaijan Immigration Services. This process is usually faster than applying through an embassy. On the other hand, if you choose to apply through the embassy, it might take longer to get your visa. You would need to book an appointment and submit all the required documents in person.

The processing time for an Azerbaijan visa application on the Azerbaijan Immigration Services is as follows:

• Normal: Applicants will receive a visa in 03 business days
• Urgent: Ghanian travelers can obtain a visa in 24 hours
• Super urgent: Ghanaian nationals with a rush case may receive their visa as soon as 05 hours. However, this service is more expensive than the other visa services.

Embassies are usually located in capital cities, although some countries may have consulates or honorary consuls in other cities or regions of a country. Currently, the embassy of Azerbaijan has not been established in Ghana yet. Therefore, Ghanian citizens or residents can only apply for a visa service at the Azerbaijan Embassy Overseas for having an Azerbaijan visa.
