Analysis of the legal framework for the application of new provisional export customs duties on aluminium and their imposition on supplies of aluminium from Russia
Amendments made to the Russian laws introduced new provisional export duties for the export of aluminium coils made in Russia. Our client — a company that operates on the market for metal packaging and has become the leading beverage packaging manufacturer worldwide, asked us for advice in this respect.
Our lawyers analysed the new requirements and explained to the client the rules of the entry into force as from 1 August 2021 of the amendments to the Russian legislation concerning export duties and the customs code of the European Union in relation to ferrous and non-ferrous metals and whether aluminium products used by the client in its manufacturing were subject to the new provisional export duties.
The legal opinion prepared by FBK Legal will help the client to conduct its export/import activities in accordance with the new requirements and amendments to the Russian laws.
