Information
Attention: import and export restrictions due to sanctions
In view of the current geopolitical situation, it is necessary to comply with various restrictions on goods which may be transported to and from Belarus.
Referring to the information published on the Official website of the European Union (https://eu-solidarity-ukraine.ec.europa.eu/eu-sanctions-against-russia-following-invasion-ukraine_lv#white Russia), the following restrictions should be taken into account:
On 2 March 2022, the Council of the European Union adopted restrictions on trade in various commodity groups: cement, iron, steel, wood and other products. Similarly, restrictions were also imposed on the trading of technology and other goods.
For more detailed information on freight transport to and from Belarus, contact our logistics managers.
Additional sanctions (https://eu-solidarity-ukraine.ec.europa.eu/eu-sanctions-against-russia-following-invasion-ukraine_lv#white Russia) to address current shortcomings and impose new import and export restrictions on key economic sectors:
- the exception applicable to contracts concluded prior to the adoption of existing sanctions has been removed;
- new prohibitions on imports of potash, wood, cement, iron and steel, as well as rubber products, and export bans on certain types of machinery, dual-use goods and technology, as well as other advanced goods and technologies, which could contribute to the development of Belarus in the military, technological, defence and security fields, have been added;
- bans on the SWIFT system, similar to those imposed on Russia, are being applied and the current financial constraints are further strengthened following a model of the existing sanctions measures imposed on Russia.
