ArmInfo. The Office of Pre-Customs Control of the Staff of the Committee on State Revenues of Armenia will be liquidated. The decision on this was taken at a meeting of the Armenian government.
According to Vakhtang Mirumyan, deputy chairman of the KGB, the authority of the department will be assigned to customs points. Thus, Mirumyan stressed, one more attempt is being made to facilitate the procedure for the passage of goods through customs points. In particular, by eliminating management, conditions are created to prevent repeated inspections of goods, which will shorten the time for business. At the same time, risk management mechanisms are expanding through the transfer of pre-customs control to post-customs, during which control mechanisms will be tightened. This initiative, Mirumyan believes, will have a significant impact on the business environment.
Prime Minister Karen Karapetyan welcomed the initiative of the SRC, assessing it as bold and necessary. "We, therefore, demonstrate our confidence in the business, giving it the maximum opportunity to move on the border, we say that the SRC has all the necessary resources to prevent possible offenses, a very good initiative," Karen Karapetyan said.
