Two attempts to import goods exceeding the non-taxable amount and subject to restriction for transportation across the customs border of Ukraine were prevented at the customs post "Uzhgorod" of Transcarpathian Customs.
Two cars "Mercedes-Benz Sprinter" with Ukrainian registration arrived at the customs post "Uzhgorod". Citizens of Ukraine were returning from the Czech Republic.
The drivers chose for customs control the "green corridor" lane, thus indicating that they were not carrying any goods that are subject to compulsory written declaration or taxation or subject to prohibitions or restrictions for transportation across the customs border of Ukraine.
Based on analysis and risk assessment, the vehicles were taken out of the general queue for in-depth inspection. In the course of customs control of the vehicles, customs officers found foreign products, namely: in one car – clothes of various sizes, colors and brands totaling 2050 pcs with a total weight of 810 kg; in another car – clothes of different sizes, colors and brands totaling 2250 pcs with a total weight of 891 kg.
The found goods were on the floor of the luggage compartments. Access to it was not hindered.
Thus, the citizens of Ukraine violated the established order of customs control in areas of the simplified customs control: they were moving goods that exceed the exemption rate for cross-border transportation and are subject to restriction on transportation across the customs border of Ukraine according to the law.
These actions have signs of violation of customs rules under Article 471 of the Customs Code of Ukraine.
At present, two reports on the violation of customs rules were drawn up, the goods were seized until the court decision.
