Prime Minister: Around 10,000 families may apply for housing for IDPs  from Karabakh in 2026

ArmInfo.  According to preliminary data, around 10,000 families may apply for housing for  IDPs from Karabakh in 2026. RA Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan  announced this at a government meeting on August 27.

According to him, approximately 7,000 families have already taken  advantage of the program, receiving certificates for the purchase of  housing. The number of applicants this year may be higher, as the  estimates are purely preliminary. Approximately 800 billion drams are  planned to be allocated for the program's implementation over the  next few years.

As a reminder, this program is implemented in the form of one of the  following types of support: a certificate for the purchase of an  apartment (the right to purchase an apartment in a building under  construction) or a residential building, a certificate for the  construction of an individual residential building, and support for  repaying an existing mortgage loan. The cost of the certificates per  family member is: 5 million drams if the beneficiary purchases or  builds a house/apartment in any of the 242 urban and rural  settlements; 4 million drams if they purchase or build their own  house/apartment in any other regional settlement of the Republic of  Armenia other than the 242 approved settlements; and 3 million drams  in the city of Yerevan (excluding Yerevan's 1st and 2nd zones).
