    ARMENIAN LAWMAKERS OFFER TRADERS CONCESSIONS

    Vestnik Kavkaza, Russia
    Feb 4 2015

    4 February 2015 - 4:49pm

    The Armenian parliament has postponed implementation of a compulsory
    inventory count in the law on turnover tax today. 75 MPs voted for
    the project, 1 against, 40 abstained. Prosperous Armenia, Heritage
    and Orinats Yerkir abstained, Dashnaktsutyun and the ruling Republican
    Party voted for it.

    A thousand small and medium-scale businessmen held a protest against
    the law in late January, resulting in the second postponement of
    its implementation (the first postponement until February 1, 2015,
    was provoked by protests in September 2014).

    Naira Zograbyan of the Prosperous Armenia Party declared the
    postponement of the law's implementation today. Traders say they cannot
    make counts of all their inventories because large distributors often
    sell goods without facture invoices. Moreover, such counts would
    make the turnover exceed the minimum limit of 58.3 million drams,
    forcing traders to pay VAT.
