Upon Cai & Lenard’s complaint the Kyiv Regional Customs Office revoked its decisions regarding the determination of the customs value of goods and recognized the right of a client-importer to apply the customs value declared by it.
Let us recall, that according to results of the joint researchof Cai & Lenard and ITF, previously widespread practice of the customs authorities to reject the declared customs value was considered by the importers as one of the biggest obstacles in the sphere of international trade.
The importers had to challenge the customs authorities’ decisions in court. Cases when the customs authorities revoked their own decisions were extremely rare.
