Customs operations

Senateks is a customs representative, entry No. 2123 in the register of customs representatives kept by the Federal Customs Service of Russia (FCS). We take care of customs clearance for cargo and vehicles: we prepare the documents for the required procedure, declare goods for import, export, and transit, calculate customs payments, and support you through FCS checks and queries.

What's included

Preparing the document package for any procedure

The list of documents depends on the customs procedure and the goods. We compile the list for your specific shipment, check the documents before submission, and tell you what is missing.

Before preparing a declaration, review TN VED product classification and authorisation and conformity documents. These guides help you collect the initial information and identify questions that still need clarification.

Declaring goods: import, export, and transit

We file the goods declaration as a customs representative and handle clearance through to the release of the goods.

Customs payment calculation and optimization

We calculate duties, taxes, and fees in advance, so you know what the shipment will cost before it is dispatched. We reduce payments lawfully: we select the correct code under the EAEU Commodity Nomenclature of Foreign Economic Activity (CN FEA, Russian: TN VED) and apply country-of-origin preferences when the shipment meets their conditions.

Support with FCS checks and queries

While your cargo is being cleared, we respond to customs queries, prepare explanations and additional documents, and support you through checks. Post-release customs audits and disputes with customs are covered in the Legal support section.
