The RA Civil Procedure Code establishes the provisions partially. The RA Law on State Duty, which entered into force in 1998, completely regulates the spheres referring to the state duty. And since every citizen has a right to know what are the actions for which the state duty is charged, we consider it necessary to inform the citizens about it. Chapter 3 of the RA Law on State Duty provides the objects for which the state duty is charged.
In the Republic of Armenia, state duty shall be charged for:
1. statements of claims, applications and complaints filed with the court, for appeals and cassation appeals against judicial acts of courts, as well as the provision of photocopies (copies) of documents issued by the court;
2. notarial actions to be performed by a notary public;
3. registering civil status acts, issuing to citizens duplicate certificates thereon, certificates on alterations, supplements, corrections of records made in the civil status acts and certificates on restoration;
4. obtaining citizenship of the Republic of Armenia and changing the citizenship of the Republic of Armenia;
5. provision of consular services or actions;
6. state registration.
