Prohibitions and Restrictions
Prohibitions and restrictions are regulatory measures governing trade in goods. Their primary purpose is to protect human, animal, and plant health and life; safeguard the environment and nature; and preserve the national economy and national wealth, including items of artistic, historical, or archaeological value.
For the effective implementation of these measures, several competent authorities—acting in accordance with specific legislation—are authorized to issue permits, approvals, or consents required for the appropriate customs procedure.
The authority responsible for enforcing import, export, and transit prohibitions and restrictions is the Customs Administration, acting through its organizational units.
Areas of Responsibility
The Customs Administration operates in the following areas:
- Food and veterinary
- Agriculture
- Public health protection
- Environmental protection
- Radiation safety
- Product safety
- Strategic goods (weapons, military goods, and dual-use goods and technologies)
- Transport of dangerous goods
- International restrictive measures
- Cultural heritage protection
- Foreign exchange operations
In cooperation with the relevant institutions, control measures have been integrated into the TARIM module. This integration is based on clearly defined data, including tariff codes, applicable legal regulations, and the specific type of license required.
