What the extract contains

The description lists full name, registration, TIN, address, contact information, status, founders or participants, management and legal succession. The three-page official specimen also shows capital, a participant table and change history. The English service description additionally lists charters as separate documents, while the Armenian version describes the extract. Confirm any required charter expressly as a separate document. [3] [8] [6]

Interface language is distinct from document language

You can use navigation in Armenian, English or Russian. Registry information and the official PDF specimens are in Armenian. If you need to submit a document in another country, ask the recipient whether a translation or authentication is required. [1] [7] [8] [9]

What foreign users can obtain online

Public search and published ownership declarations are available without an account or proof of citizenship. The service description limits applications for the detailed online extract to Armenian citizens. The separate status certificate is also offered to foreign individuals and legal entities. Both ordering services require YesEm login. [7] [3] [4]

In-person application and paper access

Hartak describes applying at a regional service office with an application, passport or ID, payment receipt and a power of attorney when represented. Its requirements refer to management, the individual entrepreneur, legal entity or an authorised representative. [6]

Fees and processing times by service

The detailed online extract lists 3,000 and immediate processing; Hartak identifies the registry extract fee as AMD 3,000. For the in-person route, Hartak describes up to five working days or a paid same-working-day option. The separate free status certificate lists three days. These fees and timings must not be combined into one universal tariff. [3] [6] [4]

Electronic original and limits of the information

The extract specimen states that the document is issued exclusively electronically. It identifies verify.e-gov.am for verification and retrieval of the original using its control number or QR code. The registry FAQ also states that submitted information is presumed reliable but its accuracy is not checked by the agency itself. Registry content should therefore be distinguished from independently corroborated company information. [8] [5]

Official samples and reading guides

Avoid common mistakes

  • Use the new portal for current data. The homepage dates the explicitly linked old portal’s information to 25 December 2025. [1]
  • The FAQ limits participant data maintained in the unified register to LLCs. Do not infer a complete shareholder list for every joint-stock company. [5]
  • Hartak’s “in person only” wording concerns the service described there. The current registry portal separately provides its online application route. [6] [3]
