Armenia visa
YerevanArmenia keeps this refreshingly simple: an e-Visa from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in one of two lengths, 21 days or 120 days, decided by how long you actually intend to stay, and normally issued within three working days. A large number of nationalities are exempt from needing one at all, so the useful first step is checking the exemption list rather than starting an application. We do that, and pick the right length if you do need one — the shorter visa is not extendable into the longer one afterwards.
