There are still problems with export to Iran. This is what Minister of Economy of Armenia Vahan Kerobyan said in response to deputies’ questions during today’s discussion on the draft state budget for 2022 held as part of the joint session of parliamentary standing committees.

According to him, in spite of the temporary special trade agreement between Iran and the Eurasian Economic Union according to which low customs duties apply for some goods, the Iranian side applies different types of non-tariff barriers, requiring this or that document or procedure.

“This obstructs export from not only Armenia, but also other countries of the Eurasian Economic Union,” he noted.
