The Russia Sanctions Regulations
From 10 April 2023, the duty-free limit for bringing goods into Russia (as well as Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Kyrgyzstan) of 990€ per parcel returned!
According to the 10th sanctions package, second-hand, vintage and personal items are not allowed out of Europe. Therefore, choose different categories and also fill in the description of the goods in detail (e.g. not just clothes, but men's trousers).
NB!
From 1 October 2023, the duty-free limit for importing goods into Russia (as well as Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia and Kyrgyzstan) will return to 200€. This means that parcels with a value above 200€ that reach the customs in Russia and other countries on 1 October and beyond will have to pay duty.
In our experience, this limit has been extended several times already and we expect it to be extended this time as well, but at the moment there is no news about the extension of the 990€ limit.
Limits by category | Type of goods | Example |
Goods which may not exceed the value of 300 EUR per item |
|
A 400 EUR bag will be confiscated by customs because the limit of 300 EUR per item has been violated. You CAN send a bag worth EUR 100, a skirt EUR 80, a scarf EUR 20 in one parcel (limited to EUR 200 for total goods). The main thing is that the item should not cost more than 300 EUR, more expensive items will be confiscated by the EU Customs. |
