YEREVAN. – At this time, scheduled passport and visas services in the United States and at US Embassies and Consulates overseas will continue during the lapse in appropriations as the situation permits, the US Embassy in Armenia noted in a statement in connection with the suspension of US government funding.

“We will not update this account until full operations resume, with the exception of urgent safety and security information,” the statement also reads. “For information on our services and operating status, visittravel.state.gov.”
