Threshold and registration for Armenia

Remote sellers providing electronically supplied services (digital products) to individuals in Armenia have to register for tax from their first sale there. Sales to business customers don’t trigger any tax registration obligations as remote sellers aren’t required to collect tax on those sales.

Supported calculations for Armenia

In Armenia, Stripe only supports collecting VAT for digital services. In Stripe, these are referred to as “digital products.” To collect this tax on Stripe, you must be a remote seller without a physical presence in the country.

We only support calculations for digital products (non-physical items or services that are delivered, given, or rendered electronically) in Armenia. Stripe doesn’t calculate tax for products that don’t use a digital product tax code. View the list of supported digital product tax codes. To calculate taxes in Armenia, make sure that you assign a tax code to each of your products.
