Migrants will be registered by the receiving party

Registration of foreigners arriving in Azerbaijan for more than a month has been simplified. Today's session of the Milli Mejlis adopted amendments to the laws  on the documents  of foreigners  living in Azerbaijan, stateless persons and foreigners staying  in Azerbaijan for more than 30 days, as well as the law on the registration of residence.

According to Ali Huseynli, the Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Legal Policy and State Building, some provisions complicate the life of foreign visitors. "It is unlikely that they are interested  in the  issues  on coordination of migration service with other State Service",  he said.

Now, according to the simplifications, landlords, managers of hotels, holiday homes, resorts, guest houses, campsites, hostels, health centers, etc. should  submit to the relevant executive  organ within three working days a copy of the passport of the foreigner. According to the MP Zahid Oruj, earlier under executive authority  was implied exclusively Immigration Service, now all agencies inviting a foreigners are considered executive authority.

After making an appeal the foreign  should be registered at the place of residence and within 48 hours shall be notified by the appropriate government agency  on registration. Registration of persons entering the country,  and getting  visa for entry, is done for a period specified in the visa.

Registration of persons whose entry to Azerbaijan does not require a visa permit is valid for 90 days. Earlier, the  term of registration period for citizens visiting Azerbaijan without a visa, provided for 30 days.

The state duty for registration at the place of residence (stay), under the new rules, will not  be charged. In case of delay foreigner or a stateless person shall notify the relevant executive organ. -17D-
