Because of the order of Ministry in Russia can to stop the factories producing TV sets. RATEK sent to the head of Department Anton Siluanov letter, which pointed out the error: the remote controls for TVs and other devices fell into the category of requiring Declaration of TSAT as tobacco or alcohol.

Recall that from 2 July in Russia came into force the order of Ministry of Finance, under which regulated the competence of the customs authorities. So, now to issue excisable goods can only of the Central excise customs (TSAT).

It turned out that because of innovations in a legal conflict. Mistakenly in the same category and hit the remote controls for TVs and other devices. They, as it turned out, one code with electronic cigarettes.

A letter indicating this error, the Association of producers and sellers of electronics (RATEK) has written to the Minister of Finance Anton Siluanov. The authenticity of the letter confirmed the “Vedomosti” representative RATEK Anton Guskov.

He also drew attention to the problem: because the remotes are not subject to excise duty, and hence to arrange their import into our country it is impossible to TSAT. Yes, and the usual customs does not work, since the device was in the “tobacco” category.

As a result, the error can be costly for the Russian production in the country at risk to stop the factories for the Assembly of televisions. Andrei said that there’s going to be about 90% of TVs sold in Russia. But the remotes to import.
