Legalization in Armenia for Foreign Business Owners
Obtaining a Residence Permit (Resident Card)

In an era of change, business is no longer tied to a single point on the map. A business owner chooses not only the market and business environment but also the country where the project can succeed. This is especially relevant for IT specialists, for whom Armenia offers very favorable tax conditions.

Armenia is not just a convenient place to conduct business; it is a territory of stability, a transparent tax system, and a real opportunity to obtain legal residency based on business activity.

The Armenian Residence Permit (Resident Card) is more than just a document — for a business owner, it means:

In addition to standard grounds, foreigners who are sole proprietors or founders/co-founders of legal entities, as well as their family members, are eligible to apply for a Residence Permit in Armenia.

• Legal stay in the country

• Tax and legal status within the country

• Confirmation of legal status in the same jurisdiction where the business is registered

which may be important for obtaining service contracts from foreign partners

• A foundation for long-term presence, relocation of family members, obtaining permanent residency, and eventually Armenian citizenship
