Visa and Travel Information
NAGORNO KARABAKH REPUBLIC VISA GUIDELINES
To visit Nagorno Karabakh, foreign nationals require
an entry visa. Nagorno Karabakh visas are issued by the Consular Section
of the NKR Permanent Representation in Armenia, located at:
17-A Zarian Street
Yerevan, Armenia
The consular section is open daily from 9:00 am to
2:00 pm except Sundays. In special circumstances, a visa may be issued
at the NKR Foreign Ministry in Stepanakert.
Visitors may get either a 7-day or a 21-day visa to
enter Nagorno Karabakh. The 7-day visa costs $25 and the 21-day visa
costs $35-$45 depending on the type of service (regular, expedited or
same-day). There is also a $2 processing fee on all visas. At the consular
section you will be asked to fill out a visa
application form and submit one photo (3x4cm), along with your valid
foreign passport.
The following individuals are exempt from visa
fees:
- Citizens of Armenia, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova,
Russia, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan;
- Individuals younger than 16 years of age;
- Representatives of international organizations accredited in the
NKR;
- Foreign nationals and their family members, who visit NKR at the
invitation of the NKR President, National Assembly Speaker, Prime
Minister and Foreign Affairs Minister.
Foreign citizens who have been granted entry visas
will have to register at the NKR Foreign Ministry upon their arrival
in Stepanakert and coordinate their travel routes with the Consular
Department of the Foreign Ministry. This is a security precaution due
to the still unresolved armed conflict with the Azerbaijani Republic.
Violators of this temporary requirement are subject to applicable NKR
laws.
Currently visitors can enter the NKR only through
the territory of the Republic of Armenia. An Armenian visa may be obtained
at the consular section of the Armenian Embassy in Washington, DC or
at the Armenian Consulate in Los Angeles, CA.
For further questions regarding NKR visas, please
contact the Consular Section of the NKR Permanent Representation in
Armenia at (374-1) 24-97-05 or ankr@arminco.com.
