YEREVAN, AUGUST 6, ARMENPRESS: Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan met
today with heads of customs warehouses to convey to them the revised
government’s approaches on how these warehouses should operate from
now on.

He said the ultimate goal is to raise drastically and in a short
period of time the quality of services offered by warehouses and to
achieve this all customs bodies will have to combine their efforts.

He then focused on key legislation requirements which should be
observed strictly by all.

He said warehouses must give up whole and retail sale of goods. He
added this will be observed very strictly.

He said warehouses must be separated from other facilities and those
that fail to meet the deadline, set by the government, will be deprived
of their licenses.

The prime minister also spoke about technical equipment of warehouses
saying the government will watch closely that all these requirements
be observed strictly.
