Issuance and Provision of a Guarantee for the Payment of Customs Duties and Fees During the Transit of Goods Across the Territory of the Russian Federation
Within the territory of the Russian Federation, which is a member of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), the customs transit procedure is applied when transporting foreign goods.
If the goods are not intended to be customs cleared directly at the border, the carrier or the cargo owner must provide security for the payment of customs duties, taxes, and customs fees. This is required so that the customs authorities can be sure that, during the further movement of the cargo, all mandatory customs payments will be duly paid. One of the ways to provide such security is a surety guarantee.
The surety guarantee is provided by Declarant Online, which acts as a guarantor for the fulfillment of obligations to the customs authorities. The presence of this document allows the cargo to be legally transported to the place of customs clearance and helps avoid delays during customs procedures.
The surety service is a convenient solution for the entire transit period of the cargo, allowing companies to avoid freezing working capital, obtaining a bank guarantee, or pledging property.
Today, security for the payment of customs duties can be issued in the form of an electronic certificate.
This is the most modern, convenient, and reliable method, which you can easily use with our support.
