Despite the fact that the legislation of the Republic of Armenia enshrines the category of legal entities of public law, only communities and inter-community associations have such a status. The relevance of the topic is due to the fact that the legal consolidation of the category of legal entities of public law in the legislation of the Republic of Armenia should also lead to a more complete definition of their types. Based on the legal norms in force in the Republic of Armenia and abroad and the works of a number of legal scholars, it is substantiated that although in the Republic of Armenia the state and communities are currently considered special subjects of the Civil Code of the Republic of Armenia, there can be no other “third” subjects of civil law, except for individuals and legal entities, since the subsidiary applicability of legal norms in relation to legal entities, permissible only in certain cases, acts as a legislative requirement as the impossibility of identifying the subjects in question, requiring the law enforcement officer to establish fundamental differences between them, the structure of which should be the legal entity of public law itself, which is accepted in almost all countries of the Romano-Germanic legal system, where this category exists. Therefore, it is necessary to distinguish between the types of legal entities of public law in the Civil Code of the Republic of Armenia and establish that these are the state and administrative-territorial units: community, inter-community association and region.
