What you need
  • An Armenian visa from an Armenian embassy or consulate, or an e-visa where eligible (evisa.mfa.am)
  • Valid passport
Good to know
Israeli citizens are on neither of Armenia's visa-free lists, and holders of all other passports "are required to obtain an entry visa". Armenian visas are issued for up to 120 days, extendable by 60. Temporary exemption: from 1 July 2026 to 1 July 2027, nationals of 111 listed countries (including Israel) who hold a residence permit from the US, an EU member state, a Schengen state, the UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait or Oman, valid for at least six months from entry, need no visa and can stay up to 180 days within a one-year period.
