The standard documents to be provided by the consignee when a shipment is addressed to a company (not to an embassy):

1) Original letter to the customs station

2) Invoice translated into Russian with the company's stamp (i.e. the receiver's stamp)

3) Certificate from the tax inspectorate that the company is registered there.

4) Certificate confirming that the company is included in the united state register

5) Certificate from the State Committee on Statistics

6) Certificate from the bank

7) Agreement on customs clearance signed by the receiver and TNT

In some cases also additional documents may be required by the customs - to be obtained by the cnee from different local authorities.

If it is a new company they will also need to get registered at the Southern Customs in Moscow.



To clear the goods the cnees will have to obtain the Sanitary & Epidemiological Certificate from the Ministry of Health.



In this case the cnees will need to pay duties/VAT and for TNT brokerage.



All the customs fees must be paid by receiver not sender, so sender and TNT cannot help on this case, the only way is receiver to pay for it.
