How to choose a customs broker in Moscow?

A customs broker or customs representative is a legal entity that performs, by order and on behalf of a participant in foreign economic activity, customs operations necessary for the release of goods. A legal entity can be recognized as a customs broker (representative) only after it is included in the register of customs representatives and obtain a license.

The broker's license makes it clear that he has a bank guarantee for one million euros, the liability is insured for twenty million rubles. Only in this case, you can be sure that the organization is entered in the Register of Customs Representatives.

Only organizations that meet the established requirements are entered into the Register of Customs Representatives:

• have a bank guarantee in the amount of 1 million euros and liability insurance in the amount of 20 million rubles;

The contract specifies the rights and obligations of the parties, the form and date of payment, conditions, amounts of insurance payments. After the conclusion of the contract, the representative acquires the same powers for customs clearance of the goods as the owner himself. In this case, the same responsibility is imposed on him.

Customs broker Moscow or Moscow region - what are the differences?

When choosing a reliable customs representative, it is important to take into account that a lot depends on where exactly the activity is carried out - in Moscow or in the region.

A customs broker in the Moscow region has much more opportunity to process cargo in road transport than a customs broker in Moscow.

For example, a customs broker in Moscow has the ability to clear customs goods arriving by road at the Moscow Customs Post, if the cargo arrives exclusively at the temporary storage warehouse of the Vorsino railway. Our specialists, given that we are located in the Moscow Region, have the opportunity to carry out customs clearance at other temporary storage warehouses, since most of the temporary storage warehouses that can handle vehicle goods are located in the Moscow Region.

Customs posts and temporary storage warehouses in Moscow and the Moscow region

The list of temporary storage warehouses in the Moscow region, submits to the Moscow Regional Customs (CED):

• Atek - Southern Moscow region, located in Stupino
• FSUE PPP, located in Odintsovo
• Gujon, located in the village Letniy Otdykh
• Istra-Terminal, located in the village Pervomaisky
• Severnaya Zvezda, located in Kolomna
• Santens-Customs, Davydovskoe village
• Mozhaisky, Otyakovo village

In terms of structure, customs posts are the lowest level of customs authorities, but most of the operations related to customs inspection and release of goods are carried out here. CPs are often located on the territory of temporary storage warehouses, which facilitates and speeds up the customs clearance procedure.

There are specialized CPs, which should be discussed separately. They are intended for customs clearance of goods with a special purpose. Let's name some of them related to the Moscow Regional Customs:

• substances of radioactive, biological, chemical composition (CP Krasnozavodskaya, code 10013090);

• customs clearance of drag. products (metals and stones) - CP (code 10009130) (Central Excise Customs code);

• customs clearance of excisable products of goods that are subject to excise duty Krekshinsky excise customs post with the code 10009030 CEC.

Temporary storage warehouses are geographically located near logistics centers or transport hubs. The temporary storage warehouse is similar in function to a customs warehouse: these are storage areas for imported goods during the period of customs clearance. Due to the fact that freight vehicles weighing more than 12 tons cannot enter Moscow, all Moscow temporary storage warehouses, with the exception of railway and aviation ones, are located outside the Moscow Ring Road.

At the temporary storage warehouse there is a price list of services for storage of goods, and 1-2 days after the arrival of the goods, storage is usually free. Prices are different - it all depends on the type, purpose, amount of cargo. After the release of the product into circulation, the owner of the cargo takes it from the temporary storage warehouse and transports it to its own warehouse. The invoice for the provision of services is issued to the cargo owner. If the latter uses the services of a customs broker, he entrusts the payment to him. And the broker includes payment in the cost of intermediary services.
