[governance] visas for azerbaijan on arrival

Hello all,

I received my Invitation Letter today.

It is a scanned, signed PDF (in English) on a Ministry of Communications &
Information Technologies letterhead addressed to me using my registration
information and signed by the Deputy Minister, Elmir Velizadeh.

The letter is dated (in handwriting) with today's date and also has a
handwritten reference number.

The letter, in summary, states, among other IGF pleasantries and logistical
issues, that you can use it to get a Visa from any of the Azerbaijan
Embassies or from the Consular Dept of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at
the Baku Airport.

>From my interaction with the Internet Society on this issue, you will also
need to bring your various registration documents, the Invitation Letter,
and your passport (of course) and colour passport-style photos for issuance
of the Visa. I believe these requirements are on the IGF website via
http://igf2012.az/?mod=content&sub=bottom&id=116&lang=en (but not the
information about the photos). I will walk with the photos just in case.

Best wishes,

Tracy
