The temporary restriction on the import of cement has been lifted.

01-10-2026 17:58 Armenia Press release
The temporary restriction on the import of cement has been lifted.

Due to the situation in the domestic cement market in Armenia, the Government has made a decision. As a result, the review of the current regulations on cement imports will be ensured, and regulations will be provided in accordance with the current market conditions.

According to a previously adopted decision, temporary restrictions and import licensing regulations have been established for cement imports from third countries, resulting in a state fee of 8000 drams for each ton.

According to the justification, there are currently logistical difficulties with cement imports, which increase transportation costs and timelines, and the application of the current regulations has also contributed to the formation of competitive unequal conditions for cement sales due to changes in the relationship between supply and demand in the domestic market.

Taking into account the established situation, there is a need to reconsider the appropriateness of maintaining the current temporary restrictions on imports and to ensure the necessary prerequisites for the formation of a sufficient supply of cement in the domestic market and more balanced competitive conditions for sales.
