14 Oct 2025 Impact of customs regulation on EAEU logistics development discussed at Eurasian Logistics Day Ruslan Davydov, Minister in charge of Customs Cooperation of the Eurasian Economic Commission, took part in the plenary session of the Eurasian Logistics Day international forum organized by the Association of European Businesses and the International Coordinating Council on Trans-Eurasian Transportation. In his speech, he told in detail about the work of the Commission's Customs Unit on promoting the Eurasian logistics development. "The introduction of navigation seals and the implementation of the Agreement on a Unified System of Customs Transit are important steps that will promote transportation development across the Eurasian Economic Union," the EEC Minister stressed. Ruslan Davydov shared that the package of amendments to the EAEU Customs Code being in the final stage of preparation reflects business community proposals and contains provisions for improving the EAEU logistics potential. Among them are the abolition of container declaration, a wider use of electronic documents, regulation of cabotage and contrailer transportation. The head of the EEC Customs Unit drew attention to the importance of developing border infrastructure for promoting transit attractiveness of the Union. He highlighted the importance of the Commission's work on establishing uniform mandatory requirements for arranging and equipping checkpoints. "The use of digital technologies at checkpoints enables quick processing of information on goods and vehicles moved across the customs border and significantly increases such traffic as control procedures take up less time," the EEC Minister pointed out. "Given the importance of this work, coordinated development of EAEU customs border checkpoints is also featured in the Action Plan to implement the Declaration on Further Development of Economic Processes within the EAEU."
14 Oct 2025 Positive impetus for businesses: EAEU mutual trade in services and direct investment grew The Eurasian Economic Commission positively assessed the impact of economic integration on business environment in the Eurasian Economic Union States. A relevant report following 2024 monitoring was approved by the EEC Board on October 14. According to the report data, the trends in the EAEU are sustainably positive. One of the main indicators is reducing obstacles in the Union's internal market: over the year, their number lowered from 46 to 36, i.e. by over 20%. This directly contributes to increased accessibility of sales markets for entrepreneurs and expands opportunities for mutual trade. Positive trends were also identified in the values of net effects. Indeed, in 2024 mutual trade in services between the Union countries grew by 16% over 2023. Compared to the 2022 reference value, the growth is 42% in two years. Moreover, integration processes promote investment activity. The cumulative mutual direct investments in the Member States 2022–2024 increased almost by 17%. "The figures presented are not just statistics, they are a direct proof that our joint work to deepen integration brings real benefits. Reduced obstacles, growing trade in services and mutual investments lay a solid foundation for sustainable economic development of our entire Union. We will stick to the course of creating a seamless economic environment where each entrepreneur will be able to fulfil their potential in the EAEU common market to the full extent," mentioned Bakhyt Sultanov, the EEC Minister in charge of Economy and Financial Policy.
