EAEU citizens not deemed as foreigners when purchasing tickets to visit cultural institutions - EEC

AKIPRESS.COM - The Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) citizens can buy tickets to museums and a number of cultural institutions regardless of their actual citizenship, in other words, they are not deemed as foreigners, the Eurasian Economic Commission notifies.

The EEC highlights that the same prices shall be applied for tickets to cultural institutions both for one's own citizens and for the citizens of other EAEU Member States, as it is stipulated by the Union's law.

However, as a result of the monitoring conducted by the Commission, it was found out that museums and some other cultural institutions in most of the EAEU countries used higher ticket prices for citizens of other Union countries than for their own citizens.

Following the joint work conducted by the Commission and the authorized authorities of the Republic of Armenia, the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic and the Russian Federation, pricing differences have been eliminated.

"The Commission solves problems of the Union's businesses and citizens in practice, and we hope for the support of all those interested in eliminating obstacles in the EAEU internal market", – noted Karine Minasyan, Member of the Board – Minister in charge of Internal Markets, Informatization, Information and Communication Technologies of the EEC.​
