Step-by-Step Customs and Cargo Management

At CAN Transport, we approach all facets of customs clearance from Russia to Turkey carefully. From compliance check through final delivery, our system is designed to minimize delays, keep expenses to a minimum, and ensure your shipment complies strictly with all the formal regulations.

Pre-Check and Consultation on Customs

Your process starts with a meticulous compliance check. Our customs experts verify your product's HS code category, screen for any bans, and determine the necessary permits, licenses, or certificates to bring into Russia. We also provide you with the estimated overall cost (duty, VAT, and official charges) at this stage, so that you will prepare your shipment with complete cost clarity.

Documentation preparation in Turkey

Once requirements are agreed upon, all essential export papers are finalized. They consist of a commercial invoice, a packing sheet, a certificate of origin, and transportation papers, namely CMR, Bill of Lading, or Air Waybill. Translations are also finalized where necessary, and EAEU/EAC conformity certificates are procured for compliance with requirements under the trade agreement. Good preparation averts one of the most usual clearinghouse holdups — inaccurate or unfinished papers.

Pickup and Dispatch Security

Once all paperwork is complete, pickup is arranged from your facility or your distributor. The cargo is carefully packaged, labeled, and scheduled on the expedited mode of transportation — road, sea, rail, or a multimodal one. The freight is traced up to the Russian border, and customs papers are presented before arrival.

Customs Clearance in Russia

Once on the ground, our ground handling team takes over. Import declaration carried out, duty and tax calculated and checked, and clearing arrangements made with customs authorities. Where verification on certification or inspection is to be undertaken, the process is pushed through centrally to keep the scheduled timeline of the clearance. We can quickly and efficiently handle inquiries with our ground experience in customs advisory work in Russia

Final Delivery and Post-Clearance Documentation

Once your shipment clears, your freight is delivered via final-mile transportation to your warehouse, retail facility, or customer location. We provide your proof of delivery and your entire post-clearance document package, and provide complete compliance and trackability.

With this one-stop solution, CAN Transport offers freight clearance to Russia and beyond — an end-to-end, hassle-free transportation solution from your Turkish supplier to your Russian buyer.
