Is travel insurance mandatory for Iranians visiting Azerbaijan?

No, travel insurance is not mandatory for Iranian citizens visiting Azerbaijan. Unlike some other countries, Azerbaijan does not require tourists to have travel insurance as a prerequisite for entry. This applies regardless of whether you are applying for a visa or visa-free entry (which applies to Iranian citizens for stays up to 30 days).

However, having travel insurance is always highly recommended, even if it's not mandatory. It can provide valuable financial protection in case of unforeseen circumstances during your trip, such as:

• Medical emergencies: If you require medical treatment while in Azerbaijan, travel insurance can help cover the costs.
• Trip cancellation or interruption: If you need to cancel or interrupt your trip due to illness, injury, or another covered reason, travel insurance can reimburse your prepaid expenses.
• Emergency evacuation: If you need to be evacuated from Azerbaijan due to a medical emergency or natural disaster, travel insurance can cover the costs.
