Mkrtchyan said that most of said Russians are engaged in the IT sector. Some of the Russian citizens required legal consultation upon registration because they were unaware of technicalities and the required paperwork. However, lawyer Lilit Karapetyan says the process is very easy. “Anyone who wants to relocate their business to Armenia should simply take their passport and come to Armenia, translate the passport in a notary office, go to the registry,” she said, adding that the registration will only take 30 minutes.
