Frequently asked questions

What is tax residency in Armenia?
It means Armenia is recognised as your main country of taxation — usually on the basis of living there more than 183 days a year, or having strong ties to the country (a business, a home, family).
Do I have to give up my citizenship?
No. Tax residency has nothing to do with citizenship: your passport stays as it is; what changes is where you pay tax.
Does Armenia tax income earned abroad?
Not always — in a number of cases income from foreign sources may not be taxed in Armenia.
What tax benefits does a resident get?
Low tax rates, simple reporting and exemption of certain categories of foreign income.
How do double taxation treaties work?
They stop the same income being taxed twice in two countries — particularly relevant for freelancers and business owners with clients worldwide.
Can I get residency without living in the country permanently?
Yes, if you establish a “centre of vital interests” in Armenia — by registering a business or owning property, for instance.
How long does the process take?
Tax resident status is usually recognised from the year in which the requirements are met — 183 days of presence or a centre of vital interests; the partner names no separate administrative processing time.
