Customs Warehouse regime came into operation at "Novaya Gavan" Terminal in Ust -Luga sea port. Central Excise Customs included "Novaya Gavan Terminal" LLC in the list of customs warehouses owners, press center of RTL Group says. For the first time in history of Russian ports operations, Customers of the Terminal, the major automakers, are able to store imported cars for a long-term period (up to three years) under customs control without customs duties payment.
According to experts, the new service should have a strong demand as car market is decreasing and average storage period of cars is increasing. Compared to current practice in customs clearance the new regime provides importers more logistics flexibility – and an ultimate competitive advantage on the Russian market for Terminal Novaya Gavan.
"We are exceptionally pleased with customs warehouse start up in Novaya Gavan, – says Konstantin Skovoroda, Chairman of the Board of Directors of RTL Group – an exclusive operator at the terminal, supported by the Central Excise Customs, – at Novaya Gavan automakers will be able to get new logistics services that are comparable to the operating conditions of automotive hubs in Europe.
