Delivery of Hazardous Container Cargo in Russian Ports: Safety First, Compliance Always

Moving hazardous goods is a job that demands the highest level of skill, strict adherence to global and national regulations, and a complete understanding of all risks involved. In the busy world of Russian port logistics, handling hazardous container cargo is one of the most critical areas. Our company specializes in making sure your hazardous goods logistics through Russian ports are safe, legal, and efficient.

What Counts as Hazardous Cargo?

Hazardous cargo includes substances, materials, or products that could pose a risk to health, safety, property, or the environment during transport. They are classified based on international rules (like the IMDG Code for sea transport) and have their own hazard class, UN number, and proper shipping name.

What Makes Customs Clearance Complex?

Customs clearance is the required set of steps for moving goods and vehicles across borders. It involves:

1. Legislation Changes Constantly:

Russian and EAEU customs laws are always evolving, requiring deep knowledge and continuous updates

2. Finding the Right Path:

Choosing the correct customs regime (e.g., release for domestic consumption, export, temporary import) is absolutely crucial

3. Product Classification:

Getting the EAEU customs code right is essential for calculating duties and applying special regulations

4. Value Confirmation:

The customs value is a key factor affecting fees. We require meticulous preparation to confirm this value

5. Non-Tariff Regulations:

Many goods need special permits (certificates, licenses, phytosanitary/veterinary papers, etc.) before they can move.

6. Electronic Filing:

The main way to submit declarations, which requires special software and an electronic signature

7. Risk Management:

Errors in paperwork, wrong classification, or undervaluing can lead to adjustments, fines, delays, and even cargo seizure. We minimize these risks
