Installation and inspection of gas equipment on vehicles included in  list of licensed activities

ArmInfo.The Armenian government at a regular meeting without discussion approved the procedure for licensing the installation of gas equipment on vehicles running on  compressed natural or liquefied hydrocarbon gas, as well as  periodical inspection (control) of gas cylinders.

According to source, at the present time the installation of gas  cylinders and periodic inspection (control) is not an activity  subject to licensing - the process is regulated by the relevant  Government decrees.

It is noted that the decision is aimed at improving the safety level  of gas-cylinder vehicles. According to the document, in 2020, an  amendment was made to the law on road transport, according to which  by-laws should be developed that regulate the sector, which will  regulate the requirements for the installation of gas equipment on  vehicles running on compressed natural or liquefied petroleum gas,  and periodic examination of gas cylinders.
