Registration and provision of security for payment of customs duties and fees when transporting goods across the territory of the Republic of Belarus

In the territory of the Republic of Belarus, a member of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), the customs transit procedure is applied to the transportation of foreign cargo. Under this procedure, the carrier or the owner of the cargo is required to provide a guarantee of payment of customs duties and fees.

ASSURANCE SPECIFICATION – use of a certificate of guarantee evidencing payment of duties and fees through a surety mechanism.

A surety bond service avoids freezing working capital, obtaining a bank guarantee or pledging property – a practical solution for the duration of transit.

Today, the customs guarantee certificate can be issued electronically. The driver receives the printed certificate at one of the issuing points in the EU.

• Transit opening point: any customs office in the Republic of Belarus
• Transit closure point: any customs office in the EAEU countries (Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan)
