The U.S. Embassy in Yerevan, Armenia is pleased to announce that the
United States will begin issuing 10-year tourist and business visas
to qualified Armenians sooner than expected.

The Embassy previously announced that the United States would
begin issuing visas in accordance with a new reciprocal arrangement
beginning January 1, 2015. Instead, effective today, Dec. 22, 2014,
the United States will begin issuing visas in accordance with the
new reciprocal arrangement.

Armenian applicants who qualify for a B-category nonimmigrant visa
may be issued multiple entry visas for up to 10 years for business and
tourist travel. Qualified Armenian students and exchange visitors and
their dependents who qualify for F, M, or J-category visas are now
eligible for multiple-entry visas valid for up to five years. Visa
application fees remain unchanged, the Embassy's press service reports.
