Common Application Mistakes to Avoid

Based on our experience helping thousands of travelers, here are the most common mistakes to avoid when completing your Armenia visa application:

Name Discrepancies

Entering your name differently than it appears in your passport. Always use your full name exactly as shown in your passport.

Passport Number Errors

Mistyping even a single digit in your passport number will result in rejection. Double-check this critical information.

Mixing up day/month/year formats. Use the calendar selector when possible to avoid date format errors.

Selecting a visa type that doesn't match your actual purpose of visit. Choose the visa type that best reflects your primary activity in Armenia.

No, each traveler requires a separate visa application, even for families traveling together or groups. However, we offer several options to make the process more efficient for multiple travelers:

Family Applications
  • Each family member needs an individual application
  • Parents or legal guardians must complete applications for minor children
  • You can use the same email address for all family members' applications
  • Our system allows you to copy certain common details (like accommodation information) between applications to save time
Group Travel
  • For groups of 5 or more travelers, we offer a streamlined group application service
  • A group coordinator can submit basic information for all travelers
  • Each traveler still receives an individual visa
  • Group processing ensures all visas are processed together
  • Contact our group visa specialists at for assistance
Corporate Travel
  • For business travelers, we offer corporate accounts that streamline the application process
  • Travel coordinators can manage multiple applications from a single dashboard

Important Considerations for Multiple Applications

  • All travelers should have consistent travel dates and accommodation information

If you're applying for multiple people, we recommend starting with one application to familiarize yourself with the process, then proceeding with the others. This helps ensure consistency across all applications.
