[governance] Azeri visas

[Izumi AIZU]

Hi, I have just sent the following request to the MAG list.

When I got the reply, will post it here (and hope that is acceptable to us).

Dear IGF Secretariat,

Civil society members have been wondering about the uncertainty of
the visa issue process for Azerbaijan IGF. Especially for those where
there is no Azeri
Embassy or Consulate inside their country, or even there is, very far from where
they live (US, China etc.)

There is not much information helpful at the current local host website.

Is "note verbal" enough to assure us to obtain the visa at the entry airport?

Your clarification at earliest possible is very much appreciated.

best,

izumi
