The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has issued a Level 4 Travel Health Notice for Armenia due to COVID-19, indicating a very high level of COVID-19 in the country.
There are restrictions in place affecting U.S. citizen entry into Armenia. Visit the Embassy’s COVID-19 page for more information on COVID-19 in Armenia.
Do not travel to:
The Nagorno-Karabakh region and surrounding territories due to recent hostilities.

The U.S. government is unable to provide emergency services to U.S. citizens in and around Nagorno-Karabakh as access is restricted. Visit our website for Travel to High-Risk Areas.
