YEREVAN, JULY 30, NOYAN TAPAN. The use of the mechanism of
self-declaration of goods is expanding in Armenia's customs system:
henceforth the economic entities importing goods and means of
transport will not have to be present at the process of customs
registration. Gevorg Saghoyan, the head of the Customs Registration
Unit of the RA State Customs Committee's Customs House of International
Road Transportation, told this to reporters on July 30.
According to him, the declaration of goods and transport means
transported through the customs border of Armenia is already done by
the person carrying out mediation customs activity or transporting
goods - by joining the ASIKUDA automated system functioning in customs
bodies through electronic channels.
G. Saghoyan said that the Regional Customs House of International
Road Transportation services only economic entities engaged in
transportation by the TIR system.
He noted that both in the first halves of 2006 and 2007, medicines,
sweets, knitwork and items for hair care were mainly imported into
Armenia from Russia, Italy, Germany, Ukraine and France. During the
indicated period, textiles, ferromolybdenum, rubber and equipment were
exported to Italy, Ukraine, Russia, Poland and Germany. In the first
half of 2007, customs revenues of the Customs House of International
Road Transportation grew by 60% on the same period of last year and
made 5 bln 460 mln drams (about 16 mln USD).
In the words of the unit head, prior to starting the export of
agricultural products, it has been decided to export perishable goods
in a special way.
Particularly, it has been decided to prepare the documents for customs
registration of goods before loading these goods on trucks.
