ArmInfo.Requirements for entities engaged in tourism activities will be set in Armenia. The government adopted a corresponding draft decision at a regular meeting on January 23.
As stated by Minister of Economy Gevorg Papoyan, rules and requirements for the provision of relevant services by tourism entities will be established. The goal is to clearly differentiate between the roles of tour operators and travel agents and to guarantee high-quality services and equal conditions in the industry. According to the Ministry of Economy, 2.2 million tourists visited Armenia in 2024, which is approximately 7% less than the previous year. The head of the Ministry of Economy attributed the decline to a decrease in tourist flows from Russia, while there has been growth from other destinations such as China, India, France, Georgia, the UAE, and South Korea. The ministry aims to reach 2.6 million tourists in 2026, a goal that Papoyan believes is quite realistic.
