Your trusted local partner
Since 2012, the German-Azerbaijani Chamber of Commerce (AHK Azerbaijan), as the official representative of the German economy in Azerbaijan, has been supporting and informing companies on market entry and business development. AHK Azerbaijan emerged from the German-Azerbaijani Business Association (DAWF), which was founded in 1999. With currently 196 member companies (as of 20 June 2025), it is the strongest European business association in Azerbaijan.
As a modern service and consulting provider, AHK Azerbaijan delivers practical, customized support for German and Azerbaijani companies. Our comprehensive services include market analysis, entry consulting, connecting potential business partners, and hands-on assistance in establishing your local presence.
With the excellent network of AHK Azerbaijan bridging business and politics, we offer expert guidance on all matters related to the Azerbaijani market. The Chamber operates across industries and maintains close cooperation with numerous companies and public and private institutions nationally and internationally.
Focus Areas
Business Contacts
The AHK Azerbaijan provides companies with comprehensive support through its exclusive business contacts, including high-ranking representatives from the local and international business communities, as well as cooperation partners from government institutions, embassies, and diplomatic missions in Azerbaijan and Germany.
Market Entry
AHK Azerbaijan supports local and international companies in establishing and expanding their business activities both in Azerbaijan and Germany.
Delegation Trips
Planning and organizing sector-specific delegation trips, cooperation forums, and professional events are among the core competencies of AHK Azerbaijan. Each year, the chamber arranges several delegation trips for German companies and political representatives to Azerbaijan and vice versa.
Trade Fairs
AHK Azerbaijan is the official representative of Messe München in Azerbaijan and Georgia, providing information on all trade fairs and events, and assisting in selecting suitable exhibitions.
Strong Network of the German Economy
AHK Azerbaijan is part of the global network of German Chambers of Commerce Abroad (AHKs), present in 93 countries across 150 locations. In Germany, the AHKs are closely connected to the network of German Chambers of Industry and Commerce (IHKs). Working closely together, the IHKs support German companies in establishing and expanding their business relations abroad. The joint umbrella organization, the Association of German Chambers of Commerce and Industry (DIHK), coordinates and oversees the AHK network. AHK Azerbaijan is partially funded by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action following a decision by the German Bundestag.
AHKs fulfill three key functions at their locations:
Official Representatives of the German Economy
The AHKs act as central players in promoting German foreign trade on behalf of the Federal Republic of Germany. They represent and advocate for German economic interests in their host countries, providing information about and promoting Germany as a business location.
Member Organizations
The AHKs serve as membership organizations for companies engaged in bilateral economic relations. These members give the AHKs weight and influence when representing their interests to politics, business, and administration to foster bilateral economic cooperation.
Service Providers for Companies
The German Chambers of Commerce Abroad offer services to companies from Germany and their host countries to support their foreign trade projects.
