European Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos has said that Armenian citizens are one step closer to being able to travel to the European Union without a visa.
Kos made the remarks on her Facebook page.
“Armenians are one step closer to travelling to the European Union without a visa.
“With EU support, Armenians will now be able to get new biometric passports, making border checks faster and travel easier.
“Armenia is choosing closer ties with Europe and we are making that choice count for its people,” Kos wrote.
Armenia launched its biometric passport issuance system on 1 November. The introduction of the biometric system is an important component of EU visa liberalisation for Armenian citizens. Armenia is currently the only country engaged in a visa liberalisation dialogue with the European Union.
