Questions

Common questions

For which crypto tasks does Armenia fit?
Above all for the technology layer: development, product teams, service companies. For licensed exchange activity, comparison with specialist regimes elsewhere is done separately.
What preferences are available to technology companies?
Armenia offers preferential regimes for the IT sector; applicability to a specific crypto project depends on the nature of the activity and requires individual verification.
How is banking?
The banking sector is developed, but crypto-related clients face enhanced compliance. Preparing a correct dossier is part of the engagement.
What about the Russian perimeter?
CFC consequences, participants’ tax residence and the structure of settlements with Russian group companies are assessed.
