The 21-day visa-free entry requires no prior application — just travel with a valid passport and supporting documents.

The visa-free entry is free. The e-Visa costs roughly ₹650 for a 21-day stay and around ₹3,400 for a 120-day stay.
Validity and Length of Stay
Visa-free: up to 21 days. e-Visa: 21 or 120 days depending on the type purchased.

Keep the following ready before you start your application. Requirements can vary slightly by case, but for most Indian travellers visiting Armenia you will need:
- Passport valid at least 6 months
- Return/onward flight tickets
- Hotel booking or invitation
- Proof of funds
- Travel insurance (recommended)
Step-by-Step Application Process
For longer stays, apply on the official Armenia e-Visa portal, fill the form, upload a passport scan, pay online and download the approved e-Visa. For visa-free entry, simply present your passport and travel proof at immigration.
Processing Time
e-Visa: about 3–5 working days. As with any international application, apply well in advance of your travel date and avoid booking non-refundable flights until your visa or authorisation is confirmed.
