Purchasing goods
from Armenia
We help arrange a purchase from a seller in Armenia for personal or business use. For food and valuable items, we separately review composition, origin and shipment terms; purchase and estimate are agreed before payment.
You choose the product; we manage the transaction with the seller
Purchasing works for a single item, a sample or a business batch when you need a clear process for buying from an overseas seller. You do not need to gather every document in advance: start with a link or product description.
A standard purchase includes one seller, up to 10 agreed items and one planned shipment. For a different scope, we agree the work, full price and timeframe in advance.
Review the order before payment
We clarify the product, availability, seller terms, invoice and whether the purchase can be delivered to the chosen address. If the scenario does not work, we tell you before payment.
Agree the invoice and payment
We agree the invoice and payment to the seller, stay in contact about the order and provide status updates. In a standard purchase, payment of the same invoice is already included in the fee.
You choose the product and budget
You choose the model, quantity and purchasing terms and set the budget. Before payment, we show the estimate and agree what OZTA will handle.
Agree additional work in advance
If you need supplier sourcing, quality checks, samples, transport, storage or clearance, we first agree the work, price and terms.
What to check before ordering
Purchasing from an Armenian seller requires a link or specification and a receiving address. Food, alcohol and jewellery also require information about composition and origin.
Below is an example of checking an offer on a local platform. To order directly from a manufacturer, send their contact details and an offer with specifications, quantity and price. We confirm purchase availability and the route for each request.
List.am
List.am has advertisements from individuals and companies. Reviewing a purchase requires the advertisement link together with the seller's profile.
- Profile type: Individual, Professional or Business
- For Business: the company name and address from its page
- Model, condition, included items and availability in the selected listing
Order data for a purchase from Armenia
For your initial enquiry, a product link or description, quantity and destination city are sufficient. If specifications or documents are needed, we will help obtain them from the seller.

We check the goods, seller, payment, documents, restrictions and route availability.
Next steps
Price before payment
The calculation separately shows goods, delivery to the first warehouse, OZTA's fee and onward costs. Purchasing begins after price and terms are agreed.
Purchasing and dispatch
We will agree payment, product inspection, packaging and delivery. We will keep you updated on the order; you will receive the cancellation, returns and claims terms before payment.
What to send for an estimate
For alcohol, jewellery, food and other regulated categories, we separately check purchase and import availability, documents and restrictions; the result depends on route and agreed terms.
- Link, seller or contact
- Product, product code, photo or specification
- Quantity: one item, sample or consignment; budget if set
- Destination country, city or warehouse
All data for calculation
- Quality, packaging and inspection requirements, if already known
- Required documents or marketplace requirements, if already known
How to calculate the purchase-on-behalf fee
We use the agreed goods price from the seller and apply the rate from the table. Delivery is not part of the fee calculation.
Rate by product price
Minimum OZTA purchasing fee: $20
- Less than $1,000
- 10%
- From $1,000, but less than $5,000
- 9%
- From $5,000, but less than $10,000
- 8%
- From $10,000, but less than $20,000
- 7%
- From $20,000
- 6%
The minimum OZTA purchasing fee is $20. For example: goods at $50 + fee of $20 = $70, excluding delivery, import costs, insurance and bank costs.
Fee calculation example
- Seller's goods price
- $2 000
- OZTA fee
- $180
- $2 000 × 9% = $180
- Goods + fee
- $2 180
This covers only the goods and fee. Seller delivery and onward freight, import charges, insurance, banking and foreign-exchange costs are separate.
What the fee includes
- One seller, up to 10 agreed items and one planned shipment.
- Checking company and payment details and purchasing terms, and agreeing the seller’s invoice.
- Payment of the seller’s invoice is already included in the fee; we do not charge a second percentage for it.
- Seller communication, order statuses and OZTA report.
What is paid separately
- Seller delivery to our warehouse and onward transport.
- Import charges, insurance and warehouse operations, when needed.
- Bank and foreign-exchange costs, and any additional work after agreement.
If additional contractor work is needed
For additional work: the provider’s price + 10% for OZTA, with a minimum OZTA coordination fee of $20 per agreed assignment. If coordination is already included in a paid package, there is no second fee. Samples and their delivery are paid separately. We do not apply this percentage to government charges, import taxes or the insurance premium.

We check whether declarations, certificates, labelling or other documents are required for the product and destination country.
Typical mistakes

What is important to know before ordering
Answers to questions about checking and purchasing products from Armenia.
How long does delivery from Armenia take?
The timeframe depends on the product, supplier, destination country and city, transport method, documents and cargo readiness. We provide the estimated scenario after checking; we do not promise a fixed timeframe before that.
Can I order alcohol for personal use or resale?
We first check the product, seller, destination country, age and licensing requirements, and documents. Personal purchases and batches have different conditions; we confirm availability and scope separately.
How can I check a piece of jewellery before paying?
We request the product listing and seller information, then agree available checks: photos, videos, specifications, contents or a document. Inspection scope is recorded in the terms.
Do I need to pay duties on imports from Armenia?
The answer depends on goods, destination country, customer status and current rules. We do not transfer one jurisdiction's rule to another: applicability is checked before calculation.
Can I order a fragile item or a carpet?
We check seller, dimensions, condition, protective packaging, loading method and route. Delivery and responsibility for fragile goods are agreed separately.
How is the supplier paid for the order?
We determine the currency, payment purpose and available channel after checking the seller, documents, country and restrictions. We communicate the payment terms before you transfer funds.
Can I order food from Armenia?
We check composition, shelf life, storage conditions, documents and destination-country restrictions. For a batch, we also clarify volume, packaging and acceptance requirements.
Do you work with small suppliers?
Send a link or the seller's contact details. We will find out whether they can accept your order, the quantity they sell and the documents they provide. We will then check payment and delivery to your city.
Which products require a separate check?
Alcohol, food, cosmetics, jewellery, fragile and other regulated goods may require special documents or conditions. Inspection scope depends on goods and destination country.
What documents are needed for purchasing?
Start with a product link or description, quantity and destination country. There is no need to collect a full set of documents in advance: after reviewing the order, we will explain what you and the seller need to provide for purchase, transport and import. The list depends on the product, route and whether you are buying for personal or business use.
We also source outside Armenia
If the seller you need is in another country, select it from the list.
We will calculate your order
Send a link or describe the product, specify the quantity and destination. We will clarify missing details together. You will receive the estimate and purchase terms before payment.
