Taxes and stamp duties

for the processing of certificates, declarations and licenses.

The processing of the authorization documents frequently requires payment of fees for the registration; such fees are called stamp duties.

Tax for the EAC certificate
The government tax for the processing of the EurAsian Conformity certificate is not charged.

Stamp duty for the EAC declaration
There’s no stamp duty for the processing of the EurAsian Conformity declaration.

Tax for the CCC certificate
The stamp duty for the processing of the Communications Compliance certificate is not paid.

Stamp duty for the CCC declaration
The amount of the stamp duty for the processing of the Communications Compliance declaration depends on the number of product models, and has to be paid by the applicant (declarant) to the actual bank account indicated by our experts during the process of mutual work. Bank details of the Federal Treasury for the payment of government tax can be changed in a while, and the size of the stamp duty is increasing from time to time. The stamp duty paid to the outdated bank account can’t be considered as properly paid; however, it can be paid back to the declarant after receiving a written request. Non-existence of a properly executed payment order for the government tax with a bank stamp, as well as the discrepancy between the amount of the stamp duty and the actual amount paid can cause aREFusal to register the CCC declaration and increase the overall term of work performance. Our calculator below can be used to calculate the current amount of the stamp duty for the processing of the CCC declaration depending on the number of product models:

Tax for Communications Compliance declaration for models = 0 RUB.


Tax for the RFC certificate
The government tax for the processing of RadioFrequency Compliance certificate has to be paid according to separate invoices issued after initial analysis of the application. The amount of the stamp duty depends on the conclusion processing time selected by the applicant (It works as inverse relation: the shorter is the processing time, the higher is the amount of the stamp duty). Our unique calculator helps to identify the exact amount of the government tax for the processing of RFC certificate depending on the number of product models and selected processing time:



* Each application requires a separate agreement to be signed. The time for harmonization and signing of the agreement by the applicant is not included in the overall processing time. The overall processing time for the applicants registered outside of the Central Federal District of Russia is increased by 5 working days.

Stamp duty for the FSS notification
There’s no stamp duty for the processing of the Federal Security Service notification.

Tax for the EAC license
Stamp duties for the EurAsian Conformity license (The Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation) are paid by the applicant (licensee) to the actual bank account indicated by our experts during the process of work. In order to obtain a properly registered EAC license one has to submit the original of the payment order for the duty with the bank stamp. The final amount of the stamp duty and the number of payment orders depend on the total number of unique HCDCS codes in the group of products. Each stamp duty payment order for the processing of the EurAsian Conformity license includes unique data that has to be filled in:
  • The number of the EAC license issued after the application and the primary assessment of the license application,
  • The unique payment ID indicated in the 22nd "Code" field of the payment order.
Non-existence even of one of the mentioned identification numbers in the payment order can cause aREFusal to register the EurAsian Conformity license and the applicant will be obligated to pay the amount of the stamp duty once more. Our interactive calculator will help to calculate the exact amount of the stamp duty for the EAC license depending on the total number of HS codes:

Tax for EurAsian Conformity license for HS codes = 0 RUB.


Applicants have to remember that the process of stamp duties payment and receiving payment orders with bank execution stamps can take some time. The mentioned period affects the length of the overall application processing term and totally depends on the speed of work of the accountant office of the applicant and one of the servicing bank.

Answer:
Hi Lasse,
Bluetooth LE products usually require a EAC declaration TR CU EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility) only. FCC approval can’t be used for EAC approval since Russia do not have a two-way agreement with USA. But, in any case, the FCC test report could be useful as a detailed tech description of the product.

Answer:
Hi Lasse,
EAC mark must not be shown on the device’s display only. In this case the EAC mark is not accessible for inspection while the display is turned off or broken, which is not allowed by TR CU. In the same time, according to the TR CU 004/2011 “Low Voltage Equipment” and TR CU 020/2011 “Electromagnetic Compatibility” «4. Affixing of a single mark of market access of the Member States of the Customs Union only on packaging and its indication in the attached operational documents is allowed in case a single mark of market access can’t be affixed directly on a technical device due to its specific construction.» I hope this helps you.

Answer:
Dear Jacob,
In case of using a 220V AC power source the ONT is the subject of EAC declaration.
If the ONT uses some wireless interfaces then it needs to have a RFC certificate.
Finally if the ONT uses any encryption protocols (for example SSL/TLS for remote administration) then it should have a FSS notification.

Question:
Hi, We are sending bank debit cards from London to our Russia bank branch via courier. Customs have held it, as they are asking for an FSB notification for this product. Could you please advise if this is correct and if so, what do we need to do?
Kavitha 1/19/2017 3:00:33 PM
Show answer

Answer:
Hi Kavitha,
It depends on functions of the cards. If cards has chips with hardware encryption (DES, 3DES, AES, RSA, SHA, MD5 etc.) like in Smart Cards, Java Cards, Mifare Cards - then the FSS notification should be registered.
If you have a technical specification for cards chips please send it to me for more concrete answer.
In other case if cards do not have any encryption it should be imported without any additional permissions.
