Customs clearance Novorossiysk

What are Customs Duties?

Customs duties warrant separate consideration.

Customs duties are the fees that must be paid by the recipient of the cargo when moving goods across the state border. This is one way to replenish the country's budget. The amount of customs duties is determined by the government.

The cost of customs duties consists of:

• Customs fees
• Duties
• VAT
• Excise tax, if the goods are subject to excise.
• Issue and submit Goods Declaration to customs authorities;

What are the Consequences of Violating Customs Clearance?

Importing goods without a customs declaration is a violation of customs legislation and can lead to criminal and administrative liability for smuggling.

Additionally, customs authorities have the authority to review the documentation and certification for up to 5 years after the customs declaration is filed, and they can impose fines for unpaid customs duties or revoke certificates, certificates of origin, or test protocols.

Therefore, undervaluing the cost of goods when importing them into the Russian Federation carries significant risks.

It is important to properly prepare all necessary documents and adhere to customs regulations for a successful completion of this procedure.

Customs Legislation in 2024

In 2021, customs legislation changed, and goods arriving in our country by sea must now be cleared at the border in Novorossiysk, St. Petersburg, and Vladivostok. The physical submission of documents for customs clearance has been abolished, and Electronic Declaration Centers (EDC) have been established in these cities. Since then, electronic declarations are submitted online using special software, and releases are obtained in the same manner.

From our experience, we can say that this is very convenient. Each client has a personal account with the Federal Treasury, which they can top up independently to make customs payments. They can monitor all account transactions themselves.
