We remind you that as a result of amendments to the “Law on Public Service,” new rules regarding the acceptance of gifts have been established. According to these regulations, gifts given during state, official visits, events, as well as during work visits and business trips are handed over to the state or community if their value exceeds 60,000 AMD.
