The requirements to hold citizenship of the Republic of Armenia and to be at least 25 years of age remain in effect.

An amendment to Article 38, Point 3 of the Charter was also adopted.

Specifically, if an individual has actually served in a given position for less than two years, that period shall not be counted as a full term of service, however, if the individual has served for two years or more, it shall be counted as one full term of service.
