You can exchange a foreign driver license for an Armenian license.

For Armenian new permanent residents, their foreign driving license needs to be converted within 3 months of their permanent residency. After 3 months, their foreign driving license will become invalid. In many cases, the new permanent residents are required to take driving tests.

The agent will process your application, check your identification, take your photograph and a sample signature for your license, check your eyesight and arrange an appointment for any theory or practical driving tests.

The law obliges all holders of a foreign drivers license who also have a residency permit in Armenia, to apply to exchange their drivers license for a Armenian drivers license.

Some countries require similar driving skills and have similar licensing systems to Armenian. Depending on the country you have come from and the class of license you are converting, you may not have to sit theory and/or practical tests. Other countries may have driver licensing systems that are very different from Armenian. People from these countries do have to sit both theory and practical tests.
