How Armenian Certified Translation Works
Submit Your Documents Securely
Upload clear scans of your Armenian documents through our encrypted portal. We accept PDF, JPEG, and PNG formats. Our intake specialists review each upload for legibility and identify the document type — whether it is a Civil Status Acts Registration certificate, a Ministry of Justice notarial document, or an academic credential from an Armenian university.
Translator Assignment
Your documents are matched with a translator experienced in Armenian administrative and legal terminology, including the distinctive vocabulary used in documents from the Civil Status Acts Registration Agency under the Ministry of Justice. Our translators handle both modern typed documents and older handwritten Armenian-script records with equal precision.
Translation & Certification
The translator produces your certified translation with a signed certification statement attesting to accuracy and completeness. For documents destined for Armenian domestic authorities, DoVisa coordinates with translators who have passed the Ministry of Justice notary translator qualification test, as required under the RA Law On Notary (HO-274).
Delivery with Full Certification
Receive your certified translation as a high-resolution PDF via email, suitable for immediate submission to authorities worldwide. Physical copies shipped via tracked courier. For e-Apostille processing, DoVisa coordinates with the Ministry of Justice — Armenia issues exclusively electronic apostilles since April 2021, verified via the national e-Apostille portal.

Common Scenarios for Armenian Document Translation
Immigration & Visa Applications
Armenian nationals applying for US green cards, UK settlement visas, Canadian PR, or Australian skilled migration need certified English translations of birth certificates, police clearance certificates, and academic credentials. DoVisa's certified translations meet all USCIS, UKVI, IRCC, and Australian DHA requirements.
Marriage & Family Documents
Marriage certificates, divorce certificates, and birth certificates issued by the Civil Status Acts Registration Agency need certified translation for spousal visa applications, family reunification, and civil registry proceedings abroad. Armenian names require consistent transliteration across all documents.
Academic Credential Evaluation
Armenian university diplomas and academic transcripts require certified translations for WES, ECE, and NACES-member credential evaluation agencies. DoVisa accurately renders Armenian grading systems and degree nomenclature for international evaluators, ensuring proper recognition of qualifications.
Business & Corporate Documents
Companies operating in or with Armenia need certified translations of commercial registration extracts, corporate bylaws, board resolutions, and employment contracts. Armenia's growing tech sector and free economic zones create specific document translation needs for businesses navigating cross-border compliance.
Legal Proceedings
Armenian court documents, powers of attorney, and legal judgments require certified translation for international legal proceedings. DoVisa translators handle the specialized Armenian legal terminology used in judicial documents, including decisions from the Constitutional Court and Court of Cassation.
Armenia's e-Apostille System: A Fully Digital Process
Armenia became one of the first countries in the region to transition to a fully electronic apostille (e-Apostille) system on 26 April 2021. Since that date, paper apostilles are no longer issued — all apostilles are delivered electronically as digitally signed documents sent via email.
The e-Apostille system is managed by the Ministry of Justice (primary competent authority) and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (for criminal record certificates). Each e-Apostille contains a 16-digit control number and a QR code for instant verification through the national portal at e-apostille.am (verification also available at verify.e-gov.am). Printed copies of the electronic apostille are legally valid and can be submitted to authorities in all 129+ Hague Convention member states.
The fee for an Armenian e-Apostille is 7,000 AMD (approximately $17-18 USD) per document. DoVisa coordinates the complete e-Apostille process, handling the application and delivering the digitally signed apostille alongside your certified translation — eliminating the need for physical visits to government offices in Yerevan.
Since April 2021, Armenia issues exclusively electronic apostilles verified via the national e-Apostille portal
The Armenian Script: Translation Challenges and Expertise
The Armenian alphabet (Հայerena aybuben) is a unique writing system created by Mesrop Mashtots in 405 AD, consisting of 38 letters (39 in the reformed orthography). It is used exclusively for the Armenian language and bears no resemblance to Latin, Cyrillic, or Arabic scripts. Translating Armenian documents requires specialized expertise that goes beyond language proficiency.
Armenian official documents present several translation challenges. Name transliteration must follow consistent conventions — Armenian given names and patronymics can be transliterated multiple ways (e.g., Hovhannes vs Hovhanness vs Ohannes), and consistency across all documents in a submission is critical for immigration authorities. The Armenian calendar uses the Gregorian system, but older documents may reference the traditional Armenian calendar. Soviet-era documents (pre-1991) are often bilingual in Armenian and Russian, requiring translators fluent in both languages.
DoVisa's translators are experienced with all types of Armenian documents — from modern Civil Status Acts Registration certificates to Soviet-era vital records, court documents with specialized legal terminology, and academic credentials from Armenian universities. We ensure consistent name transliteration and accurate rendering of Armenian institutional names across all translated documents.
