18-06-2026 15:08 Armenia Press release
Due to the necessity of addressing the issue that has arisen in the practical application of paying pensions and state benefits exclusively in a cashless manner, the executive has adopted a decision.
Accordingly, it is proposed, in particular, to make minimum banking services available to socially vulnerable beneficiaries through a service representative. It is planned to establish that the beneficiary can refuse at any time to receive the main separate group of services through the service representative and can independently utilize those services and enter into a banking account agreement. According to the justification, approximately 15,000-20,000 beneficiaries annually may utilize the main separate group of services through the service representative as needed.
Another decision proposes, in particular, to clarify the mechanisms for identifying pensioners with mobility difficulties through a written or verbal application submitted by another person to the service, and to provide the opportunity for pensioners with mobility difficulties to use the services of a representative of the authorized body even when the legislation requires any application related to the pension to be submitted in person, but the individual cannot fulfill that requirement through their own actions, and to register information related to the pensioner's application to the service through written or verbal means or by another person.
