How and where to apply
The procedure runs online on the e-Visa portal of Armenia's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (evisa.mfa.am). You fill in the form, add a photo and a copy of your passport, then pay by card. If an Armenian diplomatic mission is reachable, a consular visa remains an option.
Documents and fees
You need a passport valid for at least six months, a compliant ID photo and, depending on the purpose, proof of accommodation and of funds. The fee is not fixed here: it appears at payment on the official portal. Keep the e-Visa receipt.
