Driving abroad
Driving in Armenia
The licence plates you will see on the road in Armenia, how to read them, and what a car from abroad needs.
AM
Country code
Cars registered here show the country code AM. Abroad, the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic asks for it at the rear of the car: on a white oval sticker, or as part of the plate. A car from abroad shows its own country code at the rear in the same way.
Reading the plates
Plates carry no regional code, so the letters and numbers do not tell where a car is from.
