B1/B2 Visa Approvals in Armenia

How many B1/B2 visa applications U.S. Embassies and Consulates in Armenia approved, by fiscal year and by post. Every visa issued is an approved application.

The State Department publishes issuance counts for this visa class but not refusals, so there is no approval rate to report and none is shown. Figures run from March 2017 to September 2025.

Armenia’s published approval rate

Visitor visas are the one class where the State Department publishes a rate for each nationality, so this is the only genuine, country -specific approval rate on this site. Everything else here is a count of visas issued. Covers FY2017 to FY2025.

Applications, approvals and refusals: Armenia

Approvals are the visas actually issued. Refusals are what the published refusal rate implies for that year, net of overcomes.

Where these numbers come from. Approved is the count of B-1/B-2 visitor visas actually issued to Armenia, and both rates are published by the State Department for Armenia specifically. Adjudicated and Refused follow from those two: the adjusted refusal rate is defined as refusals minus overcomes over issuances plus refusals minus overcomes, so approvals divided by the approval rate gives the adjudications, and the difference is the refusals. An “overcome” is a refusal later resolved in the applicant’s favour the same year, so the refusal column is net of those.

Data Source & Transparency

Data Source: All visa approval statistics are compiled from the official U.S. Department of State’s annual visa statistics reports. For the most accurate and up-to-date information, visit the U.S. Department of State Visa Statistics.

Methodology: These are counts of visas issued, taken from the State Department’s monthly issuance tables. No approval rate is shown because refusals are not published per country or per post, and a rate cannot be calculated without them. Figures exclude cases under administrative processing and are subject to reporting delays.
