Armenia Corruption Watch

A new blog, Armenia Corruption Watch, has been established to publicize the trials and tribulations of doing business in Armenia. In particular, the blog says that it will document the entire procedure of dealing with customs as it attempts to import its own computers into the country.

In December/January of 2008, our company imported nearly $10000 worth of computer equipment for internal use. It was a nightmare scenario where we were given problems until the very end. My office manager visited the customs house and customs committee nearly 15 times. In the end, we received our hardware, but later found out that customs had overcharged us.

Today is the start of the new attempt to import equipment in Armenia.

This time, I will document every step in this process and post a complete account of our activities. Perhaps this time things will be different.
