Schengen visa guide for RA citizens

03/08/2026

The Schengen Area operates as a unified travel zone, eliminating internal border controls between member states. Once a traveler legally enters the region, they can travel freely across participating European countries without facing additional passport checks.

For non-EU citizens, access is managed through standardised travel regulations. A standard Schengen Visa grants eligible visitors entry for short-term stays of up to 90 days within any 180-day window.

Because Armenia is not currently covered by an EU visa-waiver agreement, Armenian citizens must secure a valid Schengen Visa prior to traveling.

Explore the step-by-step guides below – available in both English and Armenian – along with instructional videos designed to guide you through the application process and help you avoid common pitfalls to navigate your application.
