Azerbaijan extends special quarantine regime

The special quarantine regime in Azerbaijan has been extended, Prime Minister Ali Asadov announced in a signed decision.

The measure will now remain in effect until 06:00 on January 1, 2026, aiming to prevent the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) and related complications.

Previously, the regime was set to continue until 06:00 on October 1.

Recall that Azerbaijan first introduced a special quarantine regime in March 2020 in response to the global outbreak of COVID-19. Since then, the measure has been periodically extended and adjusted in line with the epidemiological situation. The regime includes health and safety requirements such as mask-wearing in certain settings, restrictions on large gatherings, and other precautionary measures designed to protect public health and reduce the risk of new infections.
