On March 30, the meeting of the Eurasian Economic Commission's Council decided to extend the 1,000-euro threshold for duty-free importation of goods by natural persons until October 1, 2023.
Previously, the Commission's Council raised the duty-free threshold to 1,000 euros for goods transported by a carrier or in postal items as well as goods brought in as luggage by all means of transport, except by air, or on foot. This threshold was set on a provisional basis until April 1 of the current year.
Extending the measure will help support citizens amid sanction pressure and avoid a shortage of essential goods and critical imports.
