According to our information, the national flag air career Armavia air company owes a lot of money due to as air tax payments. It is a long time that this company does not pay the 10,000 drams air tax included in the price of airline tickets, as a result of which now this company owes about one billion dram to the state budget. For your information, last year the government made a decision to include the air tax payments paid upon departure at the airport in the price of tickets. This sum is paid to the company which sells airline tickets. This company takes the responsibility to pay this money to the government. We tried to ask this company and the state taxation services why Armavia has failed to pay this sum to the budget. We sent a written question to the press secretary of the company. The press services of Armavia company and the state taxation services promised to answer our question today. We will publish their answers in the next edition of our newspaper. It is worth mentioning that the annual income to the budget paid as air tax reaches about 7 billion dram.
