At the customs post "Luzhanka" of the Transcarpathian customs office, an attempt of cigarette smuggling to the EU was prevented. A citizen, who arrived at the customs post by a car "MITSUBISHI" with Polish registration, tried to illegally move the cigarettes across the customs border.
However, based on analysis and risk assessment, officers of the Transcarpathian customs office took the vehicle out of the general flow for customs inspection. During the inspection, customs officers found in the car cigarettes "ROTHMANS" with excise stamps of Ukraine hidden from customs control in total amount of 380 packs. The Ukrainian had hidden cigarettes in the hollow cavities of the vehicle.
Thus, the Ukrainian committed actions aimed at moving across the customs border of Ukraine tobacco products concealed from customs control, ie, using specially manufactured caches.
These actions have signs of customs rules violation under Part 1 of Article 483 of the Customs Code of Ukraine.
Currently, the report on violation of customs regulations have been made, the cigarettes and the vehicle were seized.
