Unified Procedure for Checking Customs Documents Approved

The Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission has approved the Procedure for Checking Customs Documents when submitting a final declaration for previously cleared goods.

"The procedure will allow for the creation of a clear protocol for customs authorities and businesses during document and information checks in cases when such simplification for businesses as release before submission of a declaration for goods is applied, i.e. the declaration is actually submitted after the release of goods," said Ruslan Davydov, EEC Minister in charge of Customs Cooperation.

According to him, this decision will ensure uniform customs regulation, as well as increase predictability and certainty when applying the simplified procedure for declaring goods.

Release before submission of a declaration for goods is a simplified procedure for releasing and declaring goods where they are released based on a simplified customs document and the declaration is submitted later (before the 10th or 15th of the following month).

Release before submission of a declaration for goods is applied by authorized economic operators and for certain categories of goods.
