ArmInfo. The National Assembly of Armenia will hold an extraordinary session. The decision to hold it was signed by NA Chairman Alen Simonyan.
As reported by the press service of the parliament, the extraordinary session will be held immediately after the completion of the plenary sessions, which started on April 15. The agenda of the session, which is convened at the initiative of a group of deputies, includes only one issue: amendments to the Tax Code of the Republic of Armenia, which are planned to be adopted in two readings at once.
Earlier, Deputy Chairman of the NA Committee on Economic Affairs Babken Tunyan reported on the legislative initiative put into circulation regarding the postponement of the deadlines for filing income tax returns for individuals. In particular, as Tunyan noted, the deadline for submitting the General Income Tax Declaration for those who file a declaration this year (for income for 2024) is postponed from May to November 1. Those who must file a tax return next year (for income for 2025) can do so from March 2 to November 1. For subsequent years, the filing deadline will be set from March 2 to July 1.
According to Tunyan, the main reason for the postponement of the deadline is the problem with ID cards. Due to the process of obtaining ID cards, queues have formed, and without them it is impossible to fill out an income declaration. "Considering the relevance of the topic and issues related to the deadlines, I would like to inform you that we will adopt the draft at an extraordinary session and under an accelerated procedure by the end of this month," the deputy head of the NS commission noted. Let us recall that the implementation of the Universal Declaration of Income of All Citizens - Residents of the Republic system began in 2023. The process is organized in three stages, with the circle of people required to submit a declaration increasing each year. The implementation of the system will be completed by the end of 2025.
