Importer Company

What is necessary to become the company-importer

Legal department tasks

1. Creation of the contract, obtainment of the transaction passport



The Contract is created in Russian, and also in language of the country of goods origin (or in English).
In the Contract the various aspects of interactions between the supplier and the client are taken into consideration, such as conditions of payment, ownership transfer and transfer of the responsibility for goods, conditions of transport services payment, insurance of goods during their transportation and so on.
The Contract is checked up in the bank of the company-importer of goods. On the 1st delivery of goods the Contract also is checked up by custom authorities.
On the basis of the Contract the transaction passport is created which also is to be approved by the bank of the company-importer.

2. Customs station registration



The company-importer of goods should be registered on that customs station on which later on there will be the customs processing of goods.
The customs station can be chosen at will, however it is necessary to consider, that as for many groups of goods there are so-called "places of declaring" i.e. customs processing can take place only on the specialized customs stations having the sanctions for the processing of this or that kind of goods.
In case of delivery of various kinds of goods according to the Contract, it is often that the company-importer is to be registered and to perform customs processing at once on several stations. It complicates the procedure of customs processing, especially in cases when the mixed goods are shipped by the supplier at a time in one commercial batch.
The company-importer is obliged to conclude the Contract on payment of the TSW services at which later on the customs processing of goods will be performed.
