Traveller notes

Airport pickup
Baku's Heydar Aliyev airport activates at the gate on Azercell or Bakcell. Both are strong across the city and the Absheron peninsula.
Hotspot and calls
Allowed on most plans. WhatsApp calls work normally; the airport and most hotels have good Wi-Fi as backup.
Where the network is weak
Baku is excellent. The mountain road to Gabala and Sheki and the Khinalig villages drop to 3G or nothing; download offline maps before leaving the city.
Local SIM alternative
Azercell and Bakcell tourist SIMs at the airport are cheap but need passport registration at the counter. For a week the eSIM saves the queue; for stays over two weeks a local SIM is the better buy.

Paying from India

Providers take Visa and Mastercard, including Indian debit cards enabled for international use. Expect a 2 to 3.5% forex markup from your bank. UPI, RuPay-only cards and Paytm are not accepted. Apple Pay and Google Pay work where your card does.

How much data do I need for 6 days in Azerbaijan?

For normal use, maps, WhatsApp, social media and a few video calls, budget about 0.7 GB per day, so around 4.2 GB for 6 days. Heavy users who stream or hotspot should double that.

When should I install the eSIM?

Install it on Wi-Fi before you fly and keep it switched off until you land. Baku's Heydar Aliyev airport activates at the gate on Azercell or Bakcell. Both are strong across the city and the Absheron peninsula.
