Ukraine import

Customs and import context

Customs authority and filings

Imports are cleared by State Customs Service of Ukraine. The importer of record (or its broker) files the declaration; Anxin coordinates but does not act as importer.

Registrations and filings are confirmed with the importer's customs broker.

Import taxes to expect by name: import VAT and any customs duty. Rates and duties are confirmed by the importer's broker for the exact product classification.

Security or operating conditions in Ukraine can limit carrier acceptance and port operations; this is checked at the time of enquiry.

Languages and documents

Official or main business languages: Ukrainian. Commercial invoice, packing list and battery descriptions should use the product names the importer will declare.

Documents and battery checks for Ukraine

These are the questions we check with the importer and carrier; they do not confirm acceptance.

Tianjin side

Leaving Tianjin for Ukraine

Tianjin Xingang is the main seaport for Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. It sits at the western end of the Bohai Sea, so every ocean corridor first crosses the Bohai Sea and the Bohai Strait.

Schematic, not to scale. The terminal used for a booking depends on the carrier; Rail from inland dry ports into Tianjin Xingang is used for some cargo; whether it applies is confirmed per shipment.
