Copy SQL Azure Database to different Server
Although this question is very old, it's the one I came across when trying to find out if I could easily copy an Azure SQL database from one server to another.
It turns out that it's now as simple as navigating to the source database from http://portal.azure.com then clicking copy and choosing the new destination server.
The whole process is explained in more detail in this article:https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/sql-database-copy/
To execute DB copy between 2 different servers you must be connected to the master database of the destination SQL Azure server and have correct permissions.
The exact same login/password must exist on the source server and destination server and the login must have db_owner
permissions on the source server and dbmanager
on the destination server.

I guess there is also another way to achieve another copy in a different region. You can simply do an Asynchronous Replication to a different server and region and make that the primary.
