Visas

Holders of Diplomatic or Official passports need to apply for their visas before they travel.
 
If you are arriving by rail from Tbilisi you should ensure that you have a valid visa for Armenia before boarding.
 

Passport validity

Your passport should be valid for at least six months beyond the end of your intended stay.
 

Travelling with children

Single parents or other adults travelling alone with children should be aware that some countries require documentary evidence of parental responsibility before allowing lone parents to enter the country, or in some cases, before permitting the children to leave the country.  For further information on exactly what will be required at immigration please contact the Armenian Embassy in London.
