e-Visa, 120 days
Before you travel: you need an e-visa.
The allowance is per visit: it starts again on your next entry.
Entry and stay only. What this covers
Entry conditions1 to check
- Since the invitation-only list (N 329-Ն) was repealed by Government Decision N 643-Ն of 14 May 2026 (in force 16 June 2026), the entry visa for these nationalities is obtained as an e-visa through the E-VISA system of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Official wording
Holders of all other national passports and travel documents, including UN Laissez-Passer, are required to obtain an entry visa.
Aevamo’s reading
This is the Government decision, adopted under the Law on Foreigners (its preamble invokes Arts 6(7), 8(5), 9(4.1) and 9(8) and 10(2),(7) of that Law), that establishes the entry-visa application and issuance procedure for the Republic of Armenia: who may obtain a visa at border crossing points (s.1.1), who must use the invitation procedure (s.5), and the e-visa system (s.9). It is the instrument that imposes the operative visa-obtaining rules; the MFA pages describe and consolidate the entitlements it implements.
The MFA states that holders of all passports and travel documents not covered by a visa-free regime must obtain an entry visa before travel; the e-visa route applies because the invitation-only restriction was repealed, so these nationalities use the E-VISA system.

These routes depend on a different document or additional conditions.
Visa-free, 180 days
Exemption applies only if the traveller holds a valid residence permit issued by the United States, an EU member state, a Schengen-area state, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait or Oman, valid for at least six months from the date of entry into Armenia, presented as a physical card or passport sticker in Latin script.
For issuers also on the border-visa list (row-voa), two durations stack: the unconditional border visa (up to 120 days) and the temporary residence-permit exemption (up to 180 days). The counter uses the more generous in-force entitlement: a holder who meets the residence-permit condition is entitled to 180 days, and every other holder is entitled to 120 days under the border visa.
What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
