Rules for crossing state borders have been developed for each country that organises export and import transportation. A lot of documents have to be filled in, which used to be exclusively in paper form, but are now partially allowed in electronic form.

Issued permits open up opportunities for the unimpeded import of goods abroad and their receipt from other countries, and the certificate of origin gives information about the place of production. The most profitable way to order services for obtaining permits for cargo in Ukraine will be in FARMADA!

Depending on the country of origin, customs calculates the amount of duty that will have to be paid – this procedure is carried out by the manufacturer or supplier of the goods.

Why do you need certificates of conformity and permits?

Proper execution of all necessary documents provides a number of benefits:

• Originality – confirmation of the cargo’s identity to the conditions and purpose according to which it was produced.
• Safety – confirmation that products meet technical standards and accepted quality and safety requirements.
• Legality – improving the brand’s position in the market and in a competitive environment. High quality standards inspire trust from customers.
• Saving time – obtaining an international import certificate allows you to save time and avoid fines during inspections by government agencies.

When passing through customs control, there are standardised permits that are accepted in most countries of the world, and special permits that are specific to a particular country. If you refuse to comply with them, the cargo will be detained until the circumstances are clarified, and the sender will be fined. For goods with a very limited shelf life, this is even more dangerous, as the products will start to deteriorate and will have to be thrown away.

According to the court’s decision, all penalties will be borne by the shipper, who ignored an important point of obtaining permits for the goods.

What is required to be drawn up on a mandatory basis

Transit declaration. It confirms the right to transit cargo through the territory of another country. It is issued by the customs authorities and is mandatory for the transport of goods through Europe.

Accompanying documents. They are issued for the period of cargo transportation: invoice, CMR package, consignment note, etc.

Certificates (declarations) of conformity. These are documents that confirm that the cargo meets certain requirements and standards. For example, a certificate of conformity for food products, a certificate of conformity for medical equipment, etc. To receive products from another country, it is necessary to obtain permits for the cargo – an international import certificate.

Special documentation. Obtaining cargo permits involves one or more types of documents. For example, the conclusions of a sanitary and hygienic institution, a permit for the transport of explosive, flammable liquids, a certificate for the delivery of medicines, living human cells or transplant organs, a permit to enter a quarantine zone, etc.
