Socially vulnerable citizens of Armenia will be able to get new identity cards for free, but not biometric passports. According to the head of the Immigration and Citizenship Service at the Ministry of the Interior, Nelly Dabatyan, the benefit applies to those whose social insecurity score is 130 points or higher. The system will automatically determine the right to the benefit; Such citizens will simply not be asked to pay. However, the situation with passports is different. Their cost is 28,650 drams (about $75), and no compensation is given from the state budget. That is, even the most vulnerable citizens will have to pay for a document, without which it is impossible to travel abroad.
