• Source: Armenian population by country

Armenian populations exist throughout the world. Although Armenian diaspora communities have existed since ancient times, most of the Armenians living outside of Armenia today are either descendants of Armenian genocide survivors or more recent immigrants from post-Soviet Armenia. According to various estimates, the total number of ethnic Armenians in the world is approximately 11 million, a majority of whom live outside of Armenia.
The tables below list countries and territories where Armenians live according to official data and estimates by various individuals, organizations, and media. See also Historical Armenian population, Armenian population by urban area, Armenian-speakers by country and List of Armenian ethnic enclaves.




Limitations


Estimates of ethnic Armenian populations may vary greatly because no reliable data is available for many countries. In France, Germany, Greece, Syria, Iran, Lebanon, among other countries, ethnicity has not been enumerated during any of the recent censuses and it is virtually impossible to determine the actual number of people of Armenian origin there. Although data for people of foreign origin (born abroad or having a foreign citizenship) is available for most European Union states, this does not present the whole picture and can hardly be taken as a source for the total number of Armenians, because in many countries, most prominently France, most ethnic Armenians are not from Armenia. Also, not all Armenian citizens and people born in Armenia are ethnic Armenians, but the overwhelming majority of them are as about 97.9% of the country's population is Armenian. For other countries, such as Russia, the official number of Armenians is believed, by many, to have been underrated, because many migrant workers live in the country.




Most recent data


The following table lists all sovereign countries (member states of the United Nations), states with limited recognition (or unrecognized states), and dependent territories for which any data of Armenian population is available.

The following countries have Armenian populations of uncertain number; while population figures are not known definitively, Armenians are known to be present, even if relatively few:

Azerbaijan (Armenians in Azerbaijan):
Prior to the forced displacement in September-October 2023 that followed an Azerbaijani offensive, the Republic of Artsakh (Nagorno-Karabakh), de facto independent, but internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, had an estimated population of up to 120,000. As of early October 2023, 100,632 have fled to Armenia, while the number of Armenians staying in Nagorno-Karabakh has been variously estimated as low as 50 and as high as 1,500. According to Nagorno-Karabakh officials, they number only 8-10 or over. The ICRC said a "small number of people remain in their homes, either by choice or because they were unable to leave by themselves".
According to the 2009 census, 217 Armenians live in Azerbaijan (outside Nagorno-Karabakh). According to estimates, the number of Armenians in Azerbaijan ranges from very few (2018) to as many as 3,000 (2001), who conceal their Armenian identity.
Montenegro: "about 40 families"
Saudi Arabia: "several hundred"
Vietnam: "a small number"
Indonesia (Armenians in Indonesia): few Armenians
Myanmar (Armenians in Myanmar). Frontier Myanmar reported the number of Armenians "a few hundred at most" in 2019. According to Reverend John Felix, priest at the Armenian church in Yangon, the last full Armenian died in 2013, but there are "no more than 10 or 20 families who are part Armenian."
