Zero Taxes: Gathering as a Family, We Return to Our Homeland, Says Gabrielyan

Zero taxes on personal belongings and vehicles. As it is said, we gather as a family, move our home and return to our beloved homeland. This was stated by Sisak Gabrielyan, a member of the 'My Step' faction of the National Assembly, on his Facebook page.

'After about six months of teamwork, the project aimed at encouraging repatriation is already in circulation. Dear compatriots who have emigrated abroad, regardless of whether you are a citizen of Armenia or not, whether you have registration in Armenia or not, if you have not lived in Armenia for 3 years (to be verified through the relevant program) and you wish to establish permanent residence in your homeland, you can import your personal belongings—technology, furniture, clothing, etc.—without any customs duties and taxes, as well as one car that has belonged to you for at least 6 months before your return.'

'These benefits are not limited to this. I will present this extensive project in the coming days through live broadcasts, interviews, press conferences, and videos. We will also work with relevant bodies to prepare an accessible guide to make the process even more accessible and straightforward.'

'I would be grateful for the support from media representatives. I would like to thank Davit Ananyan, the head of the State Revenue Committee, the professional staff of the customs service, Mnatsakan Bichakhchyan, head of the Passport and Visa Department of the Police, Zareh Sinanyan, the chief commissioner for diaspora affairs, and Rustam Badasyan, the current minister of justice for assisting in the development of this project.'
