ArmInfo. Export of raw hides will be limited in Armenia. Amendments to the law "On State Duty" were approved at a meeting of the Armenian government on March 29.
According to Tigran Khachatryan, Deputy Minister of Economic Development and Investments of the Republic of Armenia, at present, there are no restrictions on the export of animal leather, which is an obstacle for the development of domestic production. Based on the results of the study of the situation in the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union, in order to restrict the export of rawhides, a state fee of 250 drams per 1 kg will be applied. This measure is aimed at creating conditions for the possibility of export of finished products from hides. The deputy minister stressed that there are manufacturers in the country ready to purchase rawhides for the purpose of processing and manufacturing finished products.
