Born in Armenia, Armen combines local knowledge with the perspective of someone who has lived and worked internationally for many years. He understands both how things work here and what people arriving from elsewhere expect.

Time is part of the service.
It doesn’t define its value.

The value lies in experience, judgement, preparation and the ability to handle each situation well.

Frequently asked questions

Can I arrange New in Armenia’s services before I arrive?

Yes. Much of the work can start before you arrive: understanding your priorities, making checks, coordinating options and preparing what can sensibly be arranged from Yerevan. Preparation specific to your case begins once you engage the service.

Can Soft Landing include housing, banking and other tasks?

Yes. Soft Landing is built around your priorities and can cover housing, banking, a SIM card, appointments, healthcare, providers, notary visits and other reasonable needs within the agreed plan.

Do I pay for individual services on top of Soft Landing?

No, if those tasks are already part of your agreed Soft Landing plan. Individual services are for people who need help with a specific task without the full package. A longer search for permanent housing has its own extension.

Can you help me open a bank account in Armenia?

Yes. We review your situation, check suitable options, verify requirements where needed and accompany you through the process, so you arrive with a clear plan.

Can you help me find a long-term home?

Yes. Soft Landing can include initial searches, checks and viewings. If you need a longer search, Soft Landing + Extended Home Search continues that process for 30–60 days.

What if I haven’t found a home by the time I arrive?

We can help arrange a temporary option before you arrive while the search for a long-term home continues according to your criteria.

Which third-party costs are not included?

Our fee covers preparation, coordination and personal support. Third-party charges—such as accommodation, deposits, official fees, notary services, translations, insurance, professional fees, purchases or additional transport—are paid separately. Soft Landing does include the initial transfer from the airport to your accommodation.

Do you only work in Yerevan?

Our in-person support is initially focused on Yerevan. We review requests elsewhere in Armenia individually before confirming them.

What if I’m moving with my partner or family?

We can tailor the service to the number of people and their shared or individual needs. If more coordination is required, we agree the scope before you commit and prepare an appropriate proposal.

What happens after our first conversation?

If we can help and you decide to proceed, we agree on the right service or package, confirm dates and next steps, and begin preparation once the corresponding initial payment has been made.
