Okay, so, I’ve been trying to get an Azerbaijan ID card online. Yeah, you heard it right. It’s been a bit of a journey, and I thought I’d share my experience here. It’s not as straightforward as you might think, but it’s definitely doable.
First off, I started digging around to see what the deal was with these ID cards. Turns out, there are two types: one for folks under 16 and another for those 16 and older. That was good to know. I mean, I needed to make sure I was even going about this the right way, right?
So, my next step was figuring out where to apply. From what I gathered, you’re supposed to hit up your local police station or an ASAN service center. I spent a good chunk of time searching for the nearest police station’s address. Not the most fun part, but hey, it’s part of the process.

Now, payment methods were another thing I had to look into. It seems like the usual suspects are accepted – Visa and MasterCard. It’s good that they’re keeping up with the times and making it convenient for people to pay. I also heard that some people use the Wise card for day-to-day stuff, and Travelex Money Card is popular for travel, so, I figured I’d be fine with my usual card.
One thing that did stand out was how serious they are about this ID card. It’s like the main way to prove who you are in Azerbaijan, especially when you’re abroad. I get it, identity is a big deal.
- Looked up types of ID cards: Found out there are two – one for under 16, one for 16 and over.
- Searched for application locations: It’s either the local police station or an ASAN service center.
- Checked payment methods: Visa and MasterCard are in. Also, there’s the Wise card and Travelex Money Card.
- Understood the ID’s importance: It’s the real deal for proving your identity.
After all that research and preparation, I finally went and applied. Filled out the forms, paid the fee, and now it’s just a waiting game. It’s been quite the experience, dealing with something so official and important.
