Which citizenship, status or regional agreement creates the person's right to move/reside?

The right derives from the family relationship to a citizen of an Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) member state who works in Armenia: that family relationship allows the family member to acquire a statement confirming their own legal residence.

See recorded sources
  • Citizens of EAEU member states
    Family members of citizens of EAEU member states who work in the Republic of Armenia may acquire a statement confirming legal residence on the basis of the working family member’s certificate and for the same period of validity as the latter’s certificate.

Under which circumstances can the person reside: worker, self-employed, student, jobseeker, self-funded person or another recognised basis?

The recognised basis is being a family member of an EAEU-citizen worker in Armenia, who themselves holds a legal-residence certificate; the page does not define which family relationships qualify (spouse, child, or others).

What entry, registration or residence-document formalities remain?

The statement is issued on the basis of the working family member's own legal-residence certificate; the page does not describe the application process, documents or issuing office for the family member's statement.

Which non-member-country family members can accompany or join, and what broad rights do they receive?

When do permanent/long-term rights arise and what continuity, absence or retention conditions matter?

The family member's statement is valid for the same period as the working family member's own certificate, so it depends on the continuity of that certificate; the page does not state any separate permanent/long-term right or condition for the family member.
