SERVICES

It is essential for each company engaged in the international business activities to appraise its business projects through the prism of the customs laws. Since our team has an experience in working with the customs authorities, it may clarify any customs-related problems.

2. Convoy of Customs Audits

We have gained experience in the field of the clients’ legal support in the course of audits performed by the customs authorities upon release of the goods. In the recent years the audited companies convoyed by our experts have received lots of recommendations pertaining to tactics and strategy applied in the course of in-house and field audits.

3. Disputes with Customs Authorities

International trade is a quite dynamic process that is constantly changing due to amendments made into legal and regulatory framework of the customs authorities. Changes introduced into the customs affairs are primarily caused by the urge of the customs authorities to shift the “game rules” with a view to increase the collection of customs duties. Requirements of the customs authorities are often of the illegal nature but participants of the international business activities are forced to obey since it directly influences the release of the goods. Engaging of VEDEXPERT’s lawyers at any stage of a dispute settlement with the customs authorities will contribute to rectification of justice.
