- Use a Different Payment Method: In some cases, applications fail due to payment errors. Try using a different card or payment method if that seems to be the issue.
- Apply Through the Embassy: If your eVisa keeps getting denied and you're unsure why, consider applying for a visa directly at the Azerbaijan embassy or consulate. They may be able to process your case with more context.
- Seek Help if Needed: If you're unsure about the rejection or need help reapplying, contact the eVisa support center or get assistance from a trusted visa service.
