The RA Family Code provides the procedure of medical examination of the persons concluding marriage as well as the consultation on medical-genetic issues and family planning is conducted by medical institutions with the consent of the persons concluding marriage within the framework of the annual health care programs guaranteed by the state.

The results of the medical examination of a person concluding marriage are considered medical secret. A person who the examined person is going to conclude marriage with may be informed about the results of the examination with his/her consent.

If the married person at the moment of state registration of the marriage in the Civic Status Registration Department concealed the fact of sex virus (including HIV/AIDS), as well as the fact of drag addiction and toxic addiction from his/her spouse, the spouse has the right to apply to court for the recognition of the marriage invalid.

Notably, under the Criminal Code of the RA, infecting another person with AIDS, venereal disease or other sexually transmitted diseases is considered as a criminal offense.
