EEC extended zero duty rates on certain types of goods for food, perfume and cosmetic products
The Eurasian Economic Commission’s Council has decided to extend for six months customs privileges for certain types of goods.
The prompt response measures approved in March of this year enabled to adapt the EAEU countries’ economies to the conditions of unprecedented external pressure, changes in established transport and logistics links and then observed currency fluctuations. Herewith, it was repeatedly emphasized at a high level that extending customs tariff benefits was only possible for certain particularly sensitive positions, which was done at the last meeting of the Deputy Prime Ministers, the EEC Trade Unit considers.
