Introduction

The main activity of the customs authorities is the organization of customs control over the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border. This means that the transfer must take place in accordance with the current customs legislation. Compliance with the law is one of the prerequisites for the process of moving goods and vehicles across the customs border of the Russian Federation.

Article 11 of the RF Customs Code defines this concept. The movement across the customs border of goods and vehicles is understood to mean the commission of actions for the import into the customs territory of the Russian Federation or export from this territory of goods and vehicles in any way.

The procedure and basic principles for the movement of goods and vehicles are established by the Customs Code of the Russian Federation, as well as a number of other regulatory legal acts. The importance of the process of moving goods and vehicles across the customs border cannot be overestimated, since it builds a system for collecting customs payments, institutions of customs clearance and customs control, which ensure both the economic and state security of the country.

The relevance of the research topic can be traced in the above, and lies in the fact that the process of moving goods and vehicles across the customs border is a key object of the customs authorities' activity, and the state's economic well-being and its security directly depend on the state of the institutions of customs clearance and customs control.

Thus, we can formulate the goal of the study in the following form: to analyze the features of the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border of the Orenburg region. Accordingly, based on the plan of our work, we can single out the research tasks, the solution of which is necessary to achieve its goal:

1. to understand the basic principles of movement of goods and vehicles;

2. to study the procedure for moving goods and vehicles across the customs border;

3. to give an analysis of the activities of the Orenburg customs in the field of movement of goods and vehicles;

4. to draw conclusions on the measures taken by the Orenburg customs, related to the movement of goods and vehicles.

When writing this work, the regulations of the Federal Customs Service of the Russian Federation, articles from magazines devoted to the customs business, official statistical information published in these magazines were used.

The object of our research is the process of moving goods and vehicles across the customs border.

The subject of the research is the relations arising in connection with the movement of these goods and vehicles across the customs border of the Russian Federation.


1 Legal basis for the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border

1.1 Basic principles of movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border

Goods and vehicles are moved in accordance with certain principles established by customs legislation. Principles are fundamental principles, basic starting points.

The basic principles for the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border are contained in Chapter 2 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation, where the norms are disclosed in the following areas: movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border, including the movement of currency and currency values ​​(Article 12); compliance with prohibitions and restrictions when moving goods across the customs border (Article 13); customs clearance (Article 14); customs control (Article 14); use and disposal of goods and vehicles (Article 15); the obligation to perform customs operations for the release of goods (Article 16); guarantees of proper performance of duties established by customs legislation (Article 17) / 1 /.

The principles related to legal relations in connection with and regarding the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border of the Russian Federation guarantee the stability of norms and procedures in the field of customs.

For movement of goods (including currency and currency values) and vehicles across the customs border a fundamental principle in customs is established, reflecting the equality of all persons in the movement of goods and vehicles across the customs border / 2 /.

The grounds for relocation, administrative procedures and requirements are the same for all persons, unless otherwise specified federal law or the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. The Code provides for exceptions generally accepted in international practice. The procedure for moving goods and vehicles across the customs border is established by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation.

The next principle is that when moving goods across the customs border, prohibitions and restrictions must be observed. Article 13 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation defines the procedure for actions in relation to goods prohibited (restricted) for import into the customs territory of the Russian Federation and for export from the customs territory of the Russian Federation, and also names persons who are obliged to comply with this procedure.

It should be noted that prohibitions and restrictions can be established in acts of both Russian law and international law: international treaties, rules international organizations.

Ensuring compliance with customs tariff and non-tariff measures is guaranteed through the establishment of special administrative procedures, instructions, reduced to the main institutions of the customs business - customs clearance and customs control. Separate sections of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation / 3 / are devoted to them.

All goods and vehicles transported across the customs border are subject to customs clearance and customs control in the manner and on the terms stipulated by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation. The article contains a strict requirement according to which all goods and vehicles are subject to customs control. Only the possibility of exemption from the application of certain forms of customs control can be provided. There may also be various technologies and procedures for customs clearance (for example, declaring goods by individuals).

The principle laid down in Article 14 can be called generally accepted in international practice. For example, Standard Rule 6.1 of the General Annex to the Kyoto Convention provides that all goods entering or leaving customs territory, regardless of whether they are subject to customs duties and taxes, are subject to customs control.

It is also prescribed that the customs authorities and their officials are not entitled to establish requirements and restrictions not provided for by acts of customs legislation or other legal acts of the Russian Federation.

Use and disposal of goods and vehicles - this principle is governed by Article 15, which establishes a limitation on the turnover of goods and vehicles prior to their release. If Article 14 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation establishes mandatory administrative procedures that guarantee the possibility of ensuring compliance with customs-tariff and non-tariff regulation measures when moving goods and vehicles across the customs border, then Article 15 establishes legal prohibitions on the free circulation of goods under customs control / 2 / ...

Obligation to perform customs operations for the release of goods- this article lists the circle of persons who are legally assigned a legally significant obligation to perform customs operations for the release of goods.

In this case, the persons are divided into two groups according to the following criteria: the movement of goods across the customs border is carried out in accordance with an external economic transaction concluded by a Russian person and the movement of goods across the customs border is carried out without the conclusion of a foreign economic transaction by a Russian person.

The last principle is guarantees of the proper performance of the duties established by this Code.... Following the norms generally accepted in foreign countries, the Code establishes the basic principle of customs, according to which the customs authorities have the right to demand from persons to provide guarantees for the proper performance of the duties established by the Labor Code of the Russian Federation / 4 /.

1.2 Movement of goods by individuals

In accordance with paragraph 4 of Art. 156 of the Customs Code of the CU, the provisions of the Code regarding the arrival of goods into the customs territory of the Customs Union do not apply to goods transported by ships and aircraft crossing the customs territory of the Customs Union without stopping at a port or airport located in the customs territory of the Customs Union.

As for the goods of the Customs Union, they can be exported from the customs territory of the Customs Union in smaller quantities than the amount declared when they were placed under a certain customs procedure, regardless of the reasons for which there was a decrease in the number of goods.

Moreover, all transported goods are subject to customs control and clearance. The following ways of moving are possible: - * accompanied baggage; * unaccompanied baggage; * shipment to the address of an individual.

Both Russians and citizens of other countries must adhere to certain rules when crossing the state border of the Russian Federation. Their content is aimed at regulating not only the order of movement of individuals across the contact line, but also the goods they transport. Let us consider further the main requirements that are put forward for this type of movement.

Legislative regulation

All processes associated with the movement of both people and goods across the customs border are regulated by some domestic regulations, which operate on the territory of the Russian Federation, as well as international documents signed with neighboring countries.

Currently, domestic regulation of movement across the Russian border takes place on the basis of the provisions provided by the Customs Code of the Russian Federation. In the text of this document, not only the order of movement is indicated, but also the features of the implementation of such actions. Moreover, given normative document prescribes a complete list of goods that are strictly prohibited to be transported across the contact line. Also, this act fully regulates certain measures of responsibility for committed violations in the field of crossing the customs border, as well as the procedure for bringing to it.

As for international acts of this nature, among them the most extensive in its content is the Customs Code concluded between the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union, which includes and the Russian Federation... Also, customs relations between the countries that are part of the union in question, at certain points, are governed by the rules of the agreement "On the procedure for moving cash across the border."

Goods movement concept

The legislator gives a clear definition of the concept of "movement of goods". One of the provisions of the Customs Code states that this action implies the commission of certain acts of importing or exporting certain products across the border of the Russian Federation. It should be noted that these actions can be carried out not only with the use of transport routes - the legislator includes in this concept goods and objects moved by mail or using pipelines, power lines, etc.

As for the movement of individuals across the border, this concept is the commission of actions presented in the form of the actual crossing of the state border by a person. As noted in the legislation, this can be done both on foot and through the use of different types of transport, including land, air and water.

Any movement of goods and individuals must be carried out exclusively within the framework of the rules for crossing the customs border of the Customs Union and the Russian Federation.

Who is the declarant

Considering the peculiarities of the procedure for moving across the customs border, one should pay attention to the concept of "declarant", which is now and then found in the content of the Customs Code. It means a person who is directly involved in the process of declaring those goods that are imported into the territory of the Russian Federation, as well as the person on whose behalf it is made, if it is performed by a legally appointed representative.

In the event that the goods are transported in the accompanying baggage, not only a Russian, but also a foreigner can act as a declarant. Even if this person has not yet reached the age of 16, any of the accompanying parents will act as the declarant in the documentation. In the event that there are no accompanying persons, then the minor is allowed to transport only those goods and amounts that are not subject to mandatory declaration.

Obligations of the declarant

In the process of moving goods, money, vehicles, and other valuables across the customs border, a person acting as a declarant is obliged to perform a number of actions prescribed by regulatory enactments that regulate issues in this area.

It should be noted that his main responsibility is to directly declare goods, which, at the first request of the employee customs service, must be presented to him in full transported volume. Also among the main responsibilities is the payment of duties and taxes, which are stipulated by legislation for each group of goods. As a result of this action, the border guard officer is obliged to provide documents confirming the fact of its commission. In some cases, a person is entitled to certain benefits in the payment of taxes and fees levied on the clearance of goods transported across the customs border of the Russian Federation. In this situation, they should provide documents confirming this possibility.

The declarant is obliged to provide only truthful data regarding the transported products. Moreover, the person must monitor the accuracy of the data specified in the content of the declaration and be fully responsible for their veracity. In the event that the declaration procedure is carried out orally, then documentary evidence of the specified information can be provided at the request of an authorized person.

In any situation, declarants are obliged to provide maximum assistance to the work of representatives of the customs authorities related to the clearance of goods.

About declaring

Declaration refers to a certain process, expressed by the provision of certain information to the customs officer regarding the transported objects, about their regime, which are needed for customs operations. This information can be provided both in writing and orally or in electronic form.

Oral declaration of goods is allowed only in relation to objects that are not among those that, on the basis of legislation, must be mentioned exclusively in writing... Oral declaration provides for a verbal message to the customs officer of information regarding the absence of prohibited items in the luggage, as well as those items that are subject to mandatory declaration in writing.

Declaration in an explicit form implies the performance of certain actions that confirm the absence in the declarant's luggage of such goods and objects that are subject to mandatory written mention. For this type of communication, two special corridors have been built at the checkpoints of the Russian Federation - "red" and "green". The first of them is intended for the movement of goods subject to compulsory written declaration, and the second - oral. Thus, the movement of a person through the "green" corridor means that he has no objects subject to written declaration.

As for the written registration of the movement of goods, it is carried out by drawing up a declaration submitted to customs officers in two copies. All entries in the forms must be carried out exclusively by the declarant or his representative carrying out the direct movement of goods, in a clear and legible handwriting. The customs declaration can be filled in both Russian and English language.

Domestic securities, including those that were previously imported into the territory of the state legally, are also subject to declaration. The same applies to different types of precious metals, regardless of whether they are imported or exported. The legislator classifies precious metals as gold, platinum, silver, palladium, as well as osmium, ruthenium and iridium. The same applies to precious stones, and these requirements apply even if the objects are imported temporarily.

The requirement under consideration also applies to vehicles, objects that may contain information constituting a state secret, and military products.

Customs clearance of goods

It should be noted that the movement of goods across the customs border of the Customs Union must be carried out exclusively within the framework of the procedure established by law. So, in the case of following it, any person who has an intention, presented in the form of transporting goods across the Russian border, must certainly register it in the prescribed manner.

The clearance of the goods must be made in strict accordance with the Customs Code. All requirements that are made by border officials must be strictly justified and limited only by those requirements that are provided for by the legislation in force in the country at the present time.

The procedure for the clearance of goods should be carried out only at the locations of the customs authorities and only at the reasoned request of the declarant.

Documents required for moving goods across the border

A complete list of those documents that will be required by border officials to complete customs clearance is public. Anyone can get acquainted with it by visiting the official portal of the customs service of the Russian Federation, as well as having studied the provisions presented in the content of the code in question.

Among required documents, in the first place, include those that prove the identity of the person importing the product. Also, they must provide a passport of the transaction, a specification translated into Russian, a proforma, an invoice, a packing list, as well as a manufacturer's price list.

It should be noted that the legislator allows such an action to be carried out on a temporary basis, provided that the car will be in the territory of the Russian Federation as a temporary registration for a period not exceeding 6 months.

In accordance with the accepted rules for the movement of vehicles across the customs border, the import of a car is possible only if the person has paid all duties and fees due for this. Citizens of foreign states who carry their own vehicle for a period not exceeding the period during which it is planned to stay on the territory of Russia may be exempted from paying additional amounts. In the event that the return movement of the vehicle across the customs border was made later than the declared period, then in this case the foreigner will have to pay all previously canceled fees in the established amounts.
