According to the government's decision, a change has been made in the process of self-isolation and taking a COVID-19 test upon entering Armenia, informed the health and labor inspectorate.

Accordingly, if a person submits the result of a negative coronavirus test that was conducted within 72 hours and the respective documents—in Armenian, Russian or English—upon entering Armenia, this person shall be exempt from self-isolation in the country.

But if there is no result of a negative COVID-19 test, the person shall take the test at the international airports or the land border crossing of Armenia and must self-isolate until a negative PCR test is obtained.

The respective PCR test is performed at the expense of the person arriving.

The results of these PCR tests are registered in the ARMED system and are provided to the tested person within 48 hours.

In case of a negative result of the PCR test, the person can come out of self-isolation.
