YEREVAN. – Given the current situation and epidemic risks arising from the spread of novel coronaviruses in a number of countries, we urge RA [Republic of Armenia] citizens abroad and/or planning to travel abroad to undergo consular registration, which can now be carried out also through an automated consular registration system. The Armenian Foreign Ministry noted this in a statement.

"We recall that that undergoing consular registration is a voluntary and free process aimed at ensuring the protection of the rights and interests of RA citizens, providing possible assistance, providing necessary consultation in emergencies," the statement also reads.
