Philippines to Armenia visa requirements

Philippine ordinary passport holders need a visa for Armenia, but can obtain an official online eVisa before traveling. A 21-day single-entry eVisa costs about AMD 3,000 (~USD 8) and a 120-day single-entry eVisa costs about AMD 15,000 (~USD 38). Apply at the official portal evisa.mfa.am; processing is usually up to 3 business days. As of 2026-06-01, the Philippines is NOT on Armenia's visa-free list for ordinary passports. The convenient and recommended route is the Armenian eVisa, issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs via the official portal evisa.mfa.am. Two tourist categories are offered: a 21-day single-entry visa (state fee AMD 3,000, about USD 8) and a 120-day single-entry visa (state fee AMD 15,000, about USD 38). Processing is normally up to 3 business days, and applicants should apply at least 3 business days before departure. A visa on arrival (120 days, AMD 15,000) is also generally available at Zvartnots International Airport, but the eVisa is preferred because it confirms authorization before travel and avoids airport queues. Note: a widely reported January 1 to July 1, 2026 temporary visa exemption for residents of 113 countries does NOT apply to Philippine passport holders by nationality; it only covers people who hold a valid residence permit from the US, EU/Schengen, UAE, Bahrain, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, or Oman. Armenia is not in the Schengen area, so the Schengen 90/180 rule and ETIAS do not apply. Passport must be valid for at least 6 months. Note: only a single-entry tourist eVisa is offered online; multiple-entry needs a consular visa.
