Permanent Residence Permit (Daimi Yaşamaq İcazəsi)

The Permanent Residence Permit (Daimi Yaşamaq İcazəsi) is the final stage for foreign nationals seeking long-term stability in Azerbaijan. It is available to those who have already successfully navigated the temporary residence system for at least two consecutive years. This permit is designed for individuals who have demonstrated a long-term commitment to the country, whether through significant financial investment, property ownership, or by contributing as a highly qualified specialist. It grants the holder the right to reside indefinitely, subject to five-year renewal cycles, and provides a higher level of security and access to local services.

This status is intended for those who have fully integrated into the Azerbaijani society and economy. By requiring a two-year track record of legal temporary residence and strict adherence to the country's migration rules—including the 90-day absence limit—the government ensures that only those with a genuine and sustained connection to Azerbaijan are granted permanent status. It is a highly sought-after permit for investors and professionals who view Azerbaijan as their long-term home and wish to enjoy the benefits of permanent residency, including easier travel and the ability to sponsor family members.
