FAQ

The commodity nomenclature of foreign economic activity includes more than 2,500 thousand items, and it can be quite difficult to choose the one that suits your particular product. The customs representative has extensive experience and will be able to do it for you. It is essential to identify the correct product code from the start, because the further mechanism for customs clearance depends on it, as well as the cost of payment.
What to do if you have recently started or are just planning to engage in foreign economic activity?
If you decide to engage in foreign economic activity, regardless of the customs regime, you have to provide a package of statutory documents to the customs representative for transfer to the customs terminal, where you will process the cargo afterwards. The package of documents must include the charter of the company, certificates of its registration and tax registration. An individual will need a passport and a TIN document for registration, an individual entrepreneur will also need to present a certificate of registration as an entrepreneur.
