According to the concept of the Armenian Revolutionary Federation,
presented on April 6, dual citizens cannot be taxed twice or serve
in the army of two countries. Thus, if a Diaspora Armenian wishes
to become citizen of the Republic of Armenia, remaining citizen of
another country, he needs to decide which country he is going to pay
taxes to or serve in the army. Of course, if he has already served
in the army, in accordance with the concept of Dashnaktsutiun he
will not have to serve in the Armenian army after becoming citizen
of Armenia. As to paying taxes, according to the ARF, a citizen
must pay taxes and serve in the army of the country where he lives
permanently. Thus, Diaspora Armenians becoming citizens of Armenia,
pay taxes to the country where they live. However, in that case,
they will not have all the rights of the citizens of Armenia because
they fail to fulfill all the duties of Armenian citizens.
