Ministry sets import quotas for eggs, cigarettes

The Ministry of Industry and Trade has announced import quotas of 8,400; 8,820 and 9,261 cartons of eggs (a dozen each) for 2017, 2018 and 2019, respectively.

 

The import quotas follow the regulations on application of tariffs rate quota under the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) for its member countries.

In addition, the import quotas for cigarettes would be 500 tonnes per year in the 2017-19 period.

The imported products have to be given certificate of origin issued by the authorised agency of EAEU’s member countries. All customs clearance procedures should be implemented at border gates.

The regulation will take effect on March 14, 2017, until the end of 2019.

Last year, the quotas for eggs and cigarettes from EAEU’s members were 8,000 cartons and 500 tonnes, respectively.
