Expand Your Business to International Markets with Azerbaijan’s Free Trade Agreements

Azerbaijan’s Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) with partner countries are more than just legal documents—they are a strategic competitive advantage for your business, offering zero customs duties and streamlined access to international markets.

What is an FTA?

A Free Trade Agreement is an accord between countries to reduce barriers to imports and exports:

• Trade of goods and services with minimal or zero tariffs
• Reduction of quotas, subsidies, and prohibitions
• Freedom of transit for goods
• Access to preferential duties

Key benefits for entrepreneurs

1. Zero customs duties: Goods originating from the same country are exempt from duties when accompanied by a CT-1 certificate.
2. Equal opportunities: You enjoy the same rights as local producers—no discrimination or additional quotas are applied.
3. Clear rules of origin: Precise determination of the origin of goods enables the use of preferential (discounted) tariffs.

Current FTA countries

Currently, Azerbaijan has active Free Trade Agreements with Russia, Moldova, Ukraine, Georgia, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Belarus, and Tajikistan.
