The Upper Lars checkpoint will remain closed until July 10, the Ministry of Emergency Situations reports.
The border crossing point, the only land road that connects Armenia to Russia, has been closed for 10 days now because of landslide caused by flooding.
The vehicles jammed at the checkpoint can continue their way through the ports of Poti and Batumi.
The Terek River still risks flooding, the Ministry said.
