Inspections Carried Out at Georgian Customs Gates

Dear Member,

In the letter sent to our Chamber by TOBB, with reference to the letter dated 10.05.2022 received from the Directorate General of International Trade in Services of the Ministry of Trade, it is stated that the Georgian Official Authorities have informed the Tbilisi Commercial Counsellor's Office that Georgia is applying the international sanctions imposed on Russia by countries such as the EU, the USA and the United Kingdom, and that, where the country of destination or departure of the transport is Russia or one of the countries party to the sanctions, goods are subject to strict inspections at Georgian Customs; it is further stated that, in transit transport of goods departing from or destined for Russia, the Georgian Customs Administration pays attention to the consistency of documents such as the contract and CMR, and may request a certificate of origin and, where deemed necessary, additional information and documents.

In this framework, it is stated that it is considered that our carriers being prepared for the said inspections, and paying attention to ensuring that the necessary documents are up to date and consistent and to taking international sanctions into account, will be useful in preventing possible losses that may arise.

Kind regards,

Elazığ Chamber of Commerce and Industry
