We would like to thank Dr Lovro Tomasic, representative of the Federal Chamber of Notaries for International Affairs and member of the Executive Board and the working group ‘International Organisations’ of the International Union of Notaries (UINL), as well as member of the Board of Trustees of IRZ, for a highly successful event on 25/26 October 2025 in Artavaz.

The seminar on the application of conflict-of-law rules in notarial practice and the role of notaries in real estate transactions, with special consideration given to anti-money laundering obligations, took place in the remote region of Kotayk so that as many participants as possible from the regions of Armenia could attend. This enabled the IRZ to facilitate the participation of 60 notaries from nine of Armenia's ten regions and Yerevan, as well as three employees of the Armenian Ministry of Justice.

IRZ has been working with the Armenian Chamber of Notaries since 2011, with the support of the Federal Chamber of Notaries. The President of the Notarial Chamber of the Republic of Armenia, Lilit Muradyan, therefore reported on the latest developments and reforms in the notarial system in Armenia. As Armenian inheritance law is to be reformed and German law is to serve as a model, the discussion was particularly stimulating.
