For an enterprise to be able to carry out foreign economic activity, it needs accreditation at customs. Accreditation is the registration with the customs authorities of any company or entrepreneur planning to start such an activity. This is nothing more than the first acquaintance of the company with the customs office. The law provides for mandatory registration (accreditation) in case of export-import operations in Ukraine. This procedure is carried out by specialists of the statistical department at customs. It consists of checking the accounting data, after which it is entered into an electronic database. It is also necessary to obtain data about the company, its location, state registration, settlement bank accounts, VAT payer certificate, personal data about the head.
The accreditation process is quite difficult and requires an impressive list of a variety of papers - the company's charter, a certificate from the statistical department, an extract from the state register, bank account information, a certificate of a VAT payer. You will also need copies of passports of the owner, accountant and other authorized employees. Step-by-step qualified advice from a customs broker will greatly simplify this procedure if you have not yet had a chance to deal with the customs authorities. In Kiev, this is a customs brokerage firm " Invecta " with a task in a few hours. This is one of the most experienced (more than 17 years of work) and qualified companies in the field of customs clearance and logistics, where you will receive any advice on the preparation of documents.
At the end of the accreditation activities, you will receive all documents back together with an accreditation card in printed and electronic form. After accreditation, the company can carry out the clearance of goods in the area of operation of the customs post. The company is registered with the customs, which is within the range of registration of its legal address. In the process of registration, a customs post is assigned to the company to carry out cargo clearance. For the processing of express shipments, a specialized customs office is provided. To receive cargo at Boryspil airport, you will need accreditation at the Kiev regional customs.
There are the following types of accreditation:
- primary;
- after cancellation or loss of the card;
- double with the Kiev regional customs.
The grounds for making changes to the accreditation (re-accreditation) card may be:
- lease renewal;
- changes in bank details;
- change of the head or authorized person;
- change the company address.
