Prime minister complains about flaws in notary system

There is a public discontent about notary services in Armenia, the prime minister has said.

Speaking at the cabinet meeting on Thursday, Tigran Sargsyan said a recent monitoring has revealed large-scale corruption in the system. He said the sums charged for notary services exceed several times the government-approved tariffs.

The government is proposing legislative amendments to reduce the internship terms for notaries (the existing system envisages one year internship with notaries before a qualification exam).

Justice Minister Hrayr Tovmasyan told the cabinet that the notary offices in the regions are facing a shortage of human resources.
