Payment, transit and practical tips
- Emergency numbers
- General 112 · Police 102 · Ambulance 103
- eSIM availability
- Azercell provides SIM or eSIM with its visitor travel packs; check device compatibility and identity requirements.
- Cash declaration
- Foreign cash can be brought in under customs procedures. On exit, up to USD 10000 uses oral declaration; USD 10000–50000 needs written declaration and prior import proof. AZN 20000 or more requires written declaration in either direction.
- Duty-free allowance
- For adults aged 18 or more, the published monthly allowance includes 1.5 litres of alcohol, 200 cigarettes, 20 g of gold jewellery and 0.5 carat of diamonds. Personal goods limits and declaration rules still apply.
- Medicines
- Medicines in quantities necessary for personal use are exempt from customs duty. This does not establish permission for every controlled medicine; confirm the specific product with Customs.
- Overstaying
- British visitor guidance states AZN 300–400 for overstay and says a departure letter may be needed. A traveller directed to leave may have 48 hours; contact Migration Service.
- Registration after arrival
- Register by day 10 pending clarification: ASAN FAQ says 10 days, while the Migration Service says registration within 15 days for stays over 15 days, or 30 days for Kazakh citizens. Registration is free. Sources differ; confirm with the embassy or your airline.
- Leaving the country
- Leave before the permitted stay expires or secure a lawful extension. Use the same electronic visa used on entry. Confirm any land exit with the authorities; British and Canadian guidance differ on prior permission. Sources differ; confirm with the embassy or your airline.
