Armenia banned entry into its territory through border crossings

Armenia banned entry into its territory through border crossings

ArmInfo.On April 3, the Armenian government decided to amend the decision "On declaring a state of emergency", according to which foreigners are not allowed to  enter the RA through border crossings regardless of the place of  arrival.

According to the Armenian Foreign Ministry, the changes were made  based on the fact that the geographical distribution of coronavirus  infection is no longer limited to countries with a tense  epidemiological situation and includes almost all countries of the  world (territory).  "According to the above decision, all persons who  are not citizens of the Republic of Armenia or a member of the family  of a citizen of the Republic of Armenia, as well as those who do not  have the right to lawfully reside in the territory of the Republic of  Armenia, are prohibited from entering the country through border  crossing points during the entire state of emergency.

The exception is diplomatic representatives of foreign states,  representatives of consular offices and international organizations  and members of their families, as well as persons who have the right  to enter by decision of the commandant or who have received  permission in special cases, "the Foreign Ministry informed.

The ministry also stated that after entering the territory of the  Republic of Armenia, persons are subjected to an immediate special  examination in order to identify symptoms of infection. After passing  the appropriate examination at the checkpoint, all persons are  subject to mandatory self-isolation if, in relation to the latter,  due to the presence of symptoms, hospitalization and (or) other  restrictive measures are not applied. In case of refusal of persons  to undergo a medical examination, hospitalization, self-isolation and  (or) other restrictive measures after entering through the checkpoint  into the territory of the Republic of Armenia, the right to free  movement within a certain territory (place) for the purpose of  examination, treatment and prevention of spread may be limited  infections.
