YEREVAN, AUGUST 10, NOYAN TAPAN. Under the RA Law on Excise Tax,
the Armenian government made a decision at its sitting on August
10 to put in circulation excise stamps "Tobacco" and "Alcoholic
Drinks" dated "2007" for marking the tobacco products and alcoholic
drinks imported into Armenia. NT was informed about it from the RA
Government Information and PR Department. It was decided that in
case of availability of excise stamps dated "2006", the importers of
cigarettes and alcoholic drinks may be also given excise stamps dated
"2006". The decision applies to relations that will arise starting
from August 15.
Making additions to the RA government’s decision No. 662 of October 26,
1999, on marking some goods, which are produced in Armenia or imported
into Armenia and are subject to excise taxation, with excise stamps of
new type, the government in particular approved the re-marking order
of the importers’ remaining stock of goods marked with excise stamps
dated "2004". Another addition stipulates that starting October 1,
2006, the sale of goods imported into Armenia and marked with excise
stamps dated "2004" is forbidden. It was also decided to approve the
order of writing off and desposing of unused or damaged excise stamps
dated "2004" until September 1, 2006, and to ensure the implementation
of this work.
