Armenia visa for Iranian citizens

Armenian passport holders benefit from visa-free entry to Iran, allowing for stays of up to 90 days. This convenient policy simplifies visits to a nation with which Armenia shares a unique cultural and historical connection, from the bustling bazaars of Tabriz to the historic Armenian churches found in cities like Isfahan. While exploring, travelers should be aware of Iran's specific currency customs, where prices are often quoted in Tomans though payment is in Iranian Rials, and can easily fly directly from Yerevan to Tehran. With the visa-free status simplifying short-term visits significantly, experiencing Iran's rich tapestry of sights is remarkably straightforward, though other specific visa types are available for longer or specialized trips.
