Import Books
 

Hello,

Bought in France an old Russian book , the beginning of the 20th century , at a cost of discharge of 10-20 thousand rubles. Under the law, obviously , refers to "cultural values". We'll have to write the declaration at the airport upon arrival in Moscow . Who has experience of similar situations , tell me how should behave with the customs. After reading many articles on the Internet came to the conclusion that they catch for incorrectly specified value of the goods . Should I inflate the cost be? What additional documents may require ? And the most important question - how long it takes the whole procedure , if the book will assign to the "cultural values" ?


Yours sincerely

All answers will get into themes in this section Import /Export, read.

you have an invoice?

No, this is more a book bazaar was.

so take an invoice from anyone familiar with the amount that you paid and go quietly.
If the amount does not exceed the permitted limits for duty-free, then nothing does not declare or declare.

If you exceed, you pay tax or file, as KC

I variant with non-declaration are not considered . Potentially, the same MC " Contraband " shines for failure to declare such a thing ? Value of about 15 000 p .

Take three photos of the imported object, the plane make a declaration in 2 ekzemlyarah at customs. Claim inspection on import ku , call an expert Ministry of Culture, show him this book, it will issue import by placing dies , dies stamped customs inspector and get out of the customs control zone at will.

Thank you for such a detailed description , Cyril! I will arrive at Sheremetyevo or Domodedovo. Is it true that there is such an expert at Moscow airports , ie expect it for a long time do not have to ?

And here and there during the day there is always an expert.
If it does, it will wait a few minutes , most importantly , ensure that the customs officer called her on the inner, direct approach to it and yet he will not call an expert will not move away from the inspector . :)>

Thanks for the tips !

And finally, whether, as suggested khmelev, "provide" invoice (receipt)?
