The RA Notary system tries to correspond to the European standards. The
system has been examined by experts from France, Switzerland
and Rome. In today’s press conference in the RA Justice Ministry
Jean-Paul Decor, a notary from Marseille said that the RA Law on
“Notary’s office” adopted in 2002 is “a law of high quality”.
He has also met the workers of the 3 offices in Yerevan and came to the
conclusion that “our notaries are conscientious”. And has he seen the
work of the notaries with the citizens? “No”, he said. Then he added,
“One of our workers visited a notary’s office and saw the queue there”.
One of the journalists informed Mr. Decor that very often in order
to solve a problem the RA citizen bribes the notary. “That problem
exists in many countries”, “consoled” the French notary. He also
said that according to the RA Justice Minister David Haroutyunyan,
“notaries are well accepted in Armenia”.
In the same press conference David Haroutyunyan informed that Armenia
is trying to become member of the Latin Notary International Union.
