On October 23, an informational meeting was held in the conference hall of the Confederation of Trade Unions of Armenia between the State Revenue Committee of the Republic of Armenia and representatives of sectoral trade unions.
Gohar Arabajyan, Deputy Head of the Taxpayer Service Department of the State Revenue Committee of the Republic of Armenia, and Nona Ghalechyan, Chief Tax Inspector of Department No. 1 of the same department, presented detailed explanations to the participants regarding the procedure, stages, and format of income declaration for individuals.
During the question-and-answer session and discussion, Gohar Arabajyan noted that the project for automatic completion of declarations is still under discussion and is not yet in effect. Therefore, until November 1, submission of income declarations remains mandatory for all categories of citizens specified by law.
Tirui Nazaretyan, Deputy Chairperson of the Confederation of Trade Unions of Armenia, emphasized that the project creates difficulties and additional expenses, particularly for citizens living in the regions and working under short-term contracts.
Many of them lack the necessary tools and technical knowledge to complete the procedure, while the assistance provided by the State Revenue Committee staff is more accessible to residents of Yerevan.
The participants highlighted the importance of introducing a simplified declaration procedure for certain categories of citizens.
