Model-generated

Criteria such as a minimum of one year of active operation, turnover thresholds above 24 million AMD, minimum employee counts, or the exclusion of basic retail trade leave the most vulnerable self-employed citizens without any safety net.

Affected groups

Micro-business owners, sole proprietors (A/Ձ), family businesses, and tourism micro-enterprises

Geography

Nothing to show.
