Higher Revenue, Easier Filing: How Armenia Improved the Way its Citizens Pay Taxes

Armenia was faced with a slowing economy, sinking remittances, and inefficient tax administration. At the same time, ordinary taxpayers had to navigate arduous processes when paying taxes. The Armenian government was eager to reform its tax administration, and with the World Bank’s support, was successful in creating a more service-oriented and efficient tax administration. Reforms helped the country build a fairer tax code and collect more public revenues.
