Armenia eVisa

Purpose: The Armenia eVisa is for travelers visiting for tourism, business, medical treatment, or visiting relatives and friends. It covers activities like sightseeing, attending conferences, or seeking short-term healthcare.

When to apply: You should apply at least 3 to 5 business days before your arrival.

Duration and extensions: Two options are available: a stay of up to 21 days (valid for 90 days) or a stay of up to 120 days (valid for 180 days). You can extend your stay for an additional 60 days through the Migration and Citizenship Service in Yerevan.

Entries: It’s typically issued as a single-entry visa, though multiple-entry visitor visas (valid for 1 year) are available through Armenian embassies and consulates.

Ports of entry: eVisa holders can enter through designated checkpoints, including Zvartnots International Airport, Ayrum Railway Station, and the land borders at Bagratashen, Bavra, Gogavan (with Georgia), and Meghri (with Iran).

Delivery format: The approved eVisa is sent as a PDF via email. You don’t need a physical sticker, but you must carry a printed or digital copy to present at the border control.

Armenia visa policy

Most foreign nationals aren't required to obtain a visa for stays up to 180 days per year. Armenia offers an eVisa and Visa on Arrival (VoA) for citizens of many other countries. For 2026, a temporary policy grants visa-exempt entry to nationals of 113 countries who hold valid residence permits from the US, EU, Schengen Area, or GCC nations.

Travelers entering Armenia by air aren't currently required to complete a mandatory e-Arrival Card before departure. Immigration clearance is typically handled directly at the border crossing.

Passport valid for at least six months from the date of arrival
Recent digital photo
Travel details (such as flight information and hotel address)

FAQs

How long is my Armenia visa valid for?

This depends on the visa you’re issued. An eVisa is valid for 90 days from the date of issue. You must enter Armenia within that time. Once you arrive, you can stay for either 21 days or 120 days, depending on which option you selected. If you’re unclear, you can contact us on WhatsApp – we're available 24/7.

How long does it take to get an Armenia visa?

Standard processing takes 3–5 business days, but iVisa offers rush and super rush options for an extra fee. You’ll see exact timelines and prices at checkout.

What is the difference between a 21-day and 120-day Armenia eVisa?

The 21-day eVisa is meant for short trips, like a holiday, short conference, or attending an event.
The 120-day visa is for longer travel, such as extended tourism, short-term study, or health treatments.

Some nationalities only qualify for one or the other — we’ll automatically show the correct option for you during the application.

Can I work in Armenia on an eVisa?

No. The eVisa does not allow any form of paid work or freelance services, even remotely, for an Armenian company. To work legally in Armenia, you must have a job offer and apply for a work visa and work permit.

Can I extend my Armenia eVisa?

Yes, in limited cases. You must apply through the Armenian Police Passport and Visa Department before your visa expires. Extensions are granted for reasons like health emergencies or force majeure, but not for general travel.
