Nikolai Tsukanov, Governor of the Kaliningrad Region, has addressed RF Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev with a request to bring the customs of the Region directly under control of the central body of the Federal Customs Service (FCS).
According to the transcript of the Governor’s meeting with Dmitry Medvedev during his visit to the Kaliningrad Region, Nikolai Tsukanov thinks it is necessary to lift extra export restrictions.
“First of all it means that a customs applicant is entitled to put exported goods under the export customs procedure regardless of the degree of processing of foreign goods placed under FEZ customs procedure and used for production of the exported goods,” Tsukanov said.
Kaliningrad Region Customs is presently subordinate of the North West Customs Authorities.
