Why this verdict
Iraqi citizens are not covered by the official Azerbaijan visa-free list or ASAN e-Visa country list used for this source review, so the normal MFA visa-issuance route applies for ordinary short visits. This guidance is intentionally conservative: special residence permits, diplomatic/service passports, work, study, overland border routes and airline transit checks can change the answer. Reconfirm on the official source before booking.
