Code, then check
Parts under heading 8708 are the common case. Two people review each classification before it goes on a declaration.
The paperwork is the part that gets people stuck.
Auto parts into Russia and Belarus fail on certification, tariff classification or documents — not on price. We handle the three, and we tell you which ones we can only coordinate.
01
EAC certification
Russia and Belarus are in the same customs union. An EAC certificate issued under TR CU 018/2011 covers wheeled vehicles and their components across both. That is one document, not two.
Which parts need certification, at what level, and on which sample basis is decided per item. We quote it per item, not as a flat package.
| Service | What you get |
|---|---|
| Applicability check | Whether your part falls under TR CU 018/2011 and under which scheme |
| Lab coordination | Testing lab booked, samples prepared and shipped, timeline tracked |
| Document set | Technical file, application, translation, label artwork |
| Not promised | We do not guarantee a fixed price, a fixed timeline, or a passing result. Certification bodies decide those. |
Said plainly. Anyone who quotes you a fixed EAC price and a fixed date before seeing the part is guessing. We quote after the lab confirms the scheme.
02
HS classification
The HS code decides the duty rate. Get it wrong and you either overpay every shipment or get held at customs.
CLASSIFY
VERIFY
Ask the broker first
We confirm with the destination-side broker before the first shipment on a new part, not after it is stuck.
RECORD
Keep the reasoning
Each classification is kept with the reasoning and the reference material, so a later audit has something to stand on.
03
Export VAT refund
Auto parts are mostly taxed at 13% and refunded at 13% on export. That is roughly 11.5% of the invoiced value coming back — larger than any monthly fee we charge.
| Your monthly purchase | Monthly refund | Returned to you (60%) |
|---|---|---|
| ¥113,000 ≈ $15,700 | ≈ $1,808 | ≈ $1,085 |
| ¥360,000 ≈ $50,000 | ≈ $5,759 | ≈ $3,455 |
| ¥720,000 ≈ $100,000 | ≈ $11,517 | ≈ $6,910 |
Rates vary by HS code and by policy year. These are illustrations on the common 13%-in / 13%-out case, not a commitment.
The split is 60 / 40. The refund is claimed by us as the exporter of record, it is not part of the goods price, and it does not change the amount on the factory invoice. We keep 40% for carrying the compliance work and the liability; you get 60%. An exporter that keeps the whole refund is charging you more than the fee it advertises.
| Claimed by | Reality |
|---|---|
| No one (buy-the-docs export) | No invoice, no refund — and a seizure risk you carry silently |
| The factory | It keeps the refund and prices it into what you pay. You never see it |
| Us, as exporter of record | Refund filed properly, 60% returned to you, 40% covers the compliance work |
Why the factory name appears on your documents. A lawful refund requires the documents to match: the VAT invoice, the export declaration, the packing list and the payment record. The factory's name is on them by law. So confidentiality here is about when we disclose, not whether — we name a factory after you choose it, never before.
04
What we will not do
RED LINE 01
No paper-only export
Declaring an export that did not happen, or routing documents with no real goods and no real payment, is not a shortcut. We do not take that work.
RED LINE 02
No promised certificate
We coordinate labs. We do not sell a guaranteed certificate, because the decision is not ours to make.
RED LINE 03
No refund marketing
We will not inflate a purchase to inflate a refund. The refund follows the real transaction or it does not exist.
Tell us the part. We will tell you what it needs.
Send one part number and the destination city. You get the certification applicability, the likely HS code, and whether the refund applies — before you commit to anything.
