Customs clearance

Customs clearance is a set of procedures and formalities required for the import and export of goods across state borders. This process includes a number of stages, each of which requires strict compliance with legislation and regulations.

Main stages of customs clearance

Document preparation

To get started, you need to collect and prepare all the necessary documents, including delivery notes, invoices, certificates of origin and compliance, as well as licenses and permits, if required.

Declaration of goods

At this stage, a customs declaration is issued, which specifies all information about the cargo: name, quantity, value, country of origin and other important data. The declaration is submitted electronically through specialized programs.

Payment of customs duties

Depending on the type and value of the goods, country of origin and destination, customs duties, VAT and excise taxes must be paid. Correct calculation and timely payment of these payments is the key to successful customs control.

Customs control and inspection

Customs authorities conduct document checks and, if necessary, physical inspection of the cargo. This may include container scanning, weighing, and random inspection of goods.

Release of goods

Once the goods have successfully passed all procedures and checks, they are allowed to be imported or exported. Obtaining a release authorization means that all formalities have been completed and the goods can be delivered to the final recipient.

Why is it important to get the customs documents right?

Incorrect or incomplete customs clearance can result in delays, fines and additional costs for the company. In some cases, goods may be confiscated or even prosecuted. Therefore, it is important to entrust this process to professionals with in-depth knowledge of customs laws and experience in dealing with customs authorities.
