BAKU, Azerbaijan, February 15. The number of incoming visitors from Kazakhstan to Azerbaijan amounted to 30,350 in 2022, Trend reports, citing the State Tourism Agency of Azerbaijan.

This is 4.3 times more compared to the 6,916 people who visited Azerbaijan from Kazakhstan in 2021.

Despite the positive dynamic, Kazakh tourists seem to have cooled their interest in Azerbaijan. Around 49,495 people visited Azerbaijan from Kazakhstan in 2019.

The significant drop that occurred during recent years can be attributed to COVID-related limitations.

Among the Central Asian states, Azerbaijan attracted the highest number of visitors from Kazakhstan. Uzbekistan was a close second with 26,309 people, while the number of tourists from Turkmenistan amounted to 11,188

The State Tourism Agency of Azerbaijan is a governmental body established to improve public administration in the field of culture and tourism. Earlier the Agency revealed that in 2022, a total of 1,602,600 foreign citizens visited Azerbaijan, which is more than double the figure for 2021 (790,062).
