Azerbaijan draws a clear line: foreigners and foreign legal entities may not own land, but may own the buildings and premises on it. For a buyer of an apartment the restriction has no practical effect.
Apartments, houses and commercial premises are acquired by foreigners in full ownership. Baku is the region's largest urban market with steady demand. Where land is needed, it is available on a long lease of up to 99 years.

Owning property may be taken into account when applying for a temporary residence permit, but the requirements are set separately and are not limited to the fact of a purchase. Current conditions are confirmed at the time of application.
The market is concentrated in Baku; outside it liquidity is markedly lower. Where a project needs a plot, a long lease of up to 99 years is used — a workable structure, though its terms are fixed by contract and checked separately.
What to bear in mind: — foreigners and foreign legal entities may not own land, including agricultural land; buildings and premises on it, they may; — purchases in border districts and areas classed as strategic may require a special permit; — the market is concentrated in Baku and liquidity in the regions is lower; — there is less public market data than in EU countries. Checked in September 2026. Thresholds, rates and programme terms change — confirm the current requirements with a lawyer in the country before you buy.
Figures are indicative, change over time and depend on the specific property and your circumstances. Obtain independent legal, tax and financial advice before any purchase.
