Common questions

Does a Chinese passport holder with a valid U.S. visa need an Armenian visa for a short tourist/business visit?

No. The reason is not the U.S. visa; China is itself listed under Armenia's visa-free regime. The sourced stay rule for Chinese passport holders is 90 days within any 180 days.

Does an HKSAR passport holder need a visa for a short tourist/business visit to Armenia?

No. Armenia MFA lists Hong Kong SAR China under visa-free regimes for all passport types; visa-free foreigners may generally stay up to 180 days per year unless the relevant agreement provides another term.

Can a Taiwan passport holder with a valid U.S. visa enter Armenia visa-free or get visa on arrival?

I found no source supporting visa-free entry or visa on arrival for Taiwan passport holders merely because they hold a U.S. visa. Taiwan is not on Armenia's visa-free lists and is not in the sourced conditional U.S.-visa visa-on-arrival nationality list; based on the sources found, apply for an Armenian e-visa/entry visa before travel.

Does a U.S. passport holder with an APEC Business Travel Card get an additional Armenia visa exemption?

I found no source showing that an APEC Business Travel Card creates an Armenia visa waiver; Armenia is not an APEC economy covered by the ABTC scheme. U.S. passport holders are already visa-free for Armenia for up to 180 days per year under Armenia's unilateral list.
