How to get to Armenia from Kazakhstan?

Armenia, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan (Kyrgyzstan) are three independent countries that can be entered with an internal Russian passport.

At the same time, only in Armenia it is allowed to stay continuously for up to 180 days, after which it is possible to cross any border and reset the period of stay: “Vizaran” works in Armenia.

In addition, Armenia is very loyal to the violation of the term of stay: the police do not check passports on the street, they do not arrange migratory raids. For violation of the 180-day period, it is enough to pay a fine of 50,000 drams (130$): there will be no expulsion or deportation.

Unlike Armenia, Kazakhstan forbids permanent stay over 90 days within 180 days for citizens of the Russian Federation who entered the country after January 27, 2023.

In other words: if you entered Kazakhstan before 00:00 on January 27, 2023, you can stay in the country for up to 180 days. If you moved in after, you can only live for 90 days.
