Simplification of procedures for export of non-dual goods and import of non-military goods

Whenever electronic components were imported into Armenia or engineering products were exported, it was necessary to submit an expertise results for the customs declaration that the given product was not of dual purpose at the time of export, and not of military purpose at the time of import. The business paid 48,000-60,000 AMD for each examination and lost several days of time. The issue was particularly sensitive for small R&D companies that were shipping unit products. This process of customs clearance was further aggravated when it came to goods previously imported or exported and already recognized as non-dual or non-military. SRC has created a new unit to carry out the examination itself. From now on, at the stage of customs declaration, the department no longer sends the goods for examination. In addition to SRC's initiative, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the department within the framework of the reform, expertise providing organizations are now obliged to import the codes and technical specifications of all received products that have passed the examination in live mode into the SRC system, which will help both the respective department and the business.
