SYRIAN ARMENIANS ALLOWED TO DRIVE THEIR CARS WITHOUT CUSTOMS CLEARANCE UNTIL 2014 DECEMBER 31
YEREVAN, October 31. / ARKA /. The Armenian government on Thursday
has decided to allow Syrian Armenians to drive their cars here without
going through customs clearance up to 31 December, 2014.
According to Diaspora minister Hranush Hakobyan, the decision applies
to vehicles imported to Armenia after July 1, 2012.
She said most of Syrian Armenian refugees with cars were allowed
originally to have their cars go through customs clearance in 11
months, however the deadline has expired for many of them.
"It is unclear how long many of the refugees are going to stay in
Armenia and the clearance procedure will be an additional financial
burden for them. We want to free them from this burden," she said.
According to the Diaspora ministry, there are now about 11,000 Syrian
Armenians in the country. -0-
