ArmInfo.About 6 thousand representatives of micro-business of Armenia will be able to count on state assistance. At the April 9 meeting, the RA Government approved the 10th program of state assistance in coronavirus pandemic.
As David Ananyan, Chairman of the RA State Revenue Committee, noted in his speech, state assistance will be extended to three groups of beneficiaries. In particular, those who acted as a subject of family business in 2019, those who are self-employed individuals, and those who faithfully carried out trading operations through checks of cash transactions. It is envisaged, for example, to provide a one-time financial assistance in the amount of 10%, but not more than twice the minimum wage, from the work done by micro-entrepreneurship entities from January 1 to April 1, 2020. At the same time, those individuals who after January 1, 2020 acted as micro-business entities without being individual entrepreneurs, as well as those who carried out trading operations in good faith, can count on government assistance in the amount of the minimum wage with the provision of checks of cash registers. At the same time, beneficiaries of the program cannot be persons with 2 or more employees, since in this case they will be able to participate in other similar assistance programs.
In turn, the Prime Minister of the Republic of Armenia Nikol Pashinyan emphasized that all measures approved by the government take into account the social, economic and strategic components. These events are operational in nature, but are aimed at the future. The logic of the new The program consists in the fact that whoever faithfully issued CAC checks, he will receive more, for those who do not use the devices, a separate program will be developed.
