Armenia cuts processing time for citizenship applications

Armenia cuts processing time for citizenship applications

YEREVAN, OCTOBER 27, ARMENPRESS. The parliament adopted at first reading the Pashinyan administration’s bill on reducing the processing time of citizenship applications from 6 months to 90 days.

The bill was approved with 58/24/0 votes.

The amendments also seek to extend the deadline for citizenship applications from ethnic Armenians permanently residing in Armenia and in post-Soviet countries to December 31, 2023. The requirement for naturalization on permanent residence in Armenia in the past three years and basic knowledge of Armenian language will be lifted for persons whose children are adult citizens of Armenia.

The application processing time for naturalization and renunciation of citizenship will also be changed.

Applicants who will be granted the citizenship will be enabled to take their first passports in Armenian embassies and consular offices abroad.
