Shipping goods to Yaroslavl, Russia
Yaroslavl is an ancient industrial centre on the Volga north-east of Moscow and an important hub of the rail and road routes of the Upper Volga.
Shipping goods to Yaroslavl — from Europe, Asia and the US
Yaroslavl serves the industrial market of the Upper Volga with well-developed engineering, oil refining and chemicals. Its proximity to Moscow (about 250 km on the M-8) makes it convenient to bring in imports via the Moscow hub with fast road delivery. Direct road routes from Europe and Turkey are also widely used to supply the region’s businesses.
If your customer is in Yaroslavl, we organise the whole delivery for you: we collect the goods from your premises, consolidate consignments, lodge the EU export declaration if you do not do it yourself (with proof of exit for your VAT zero-rating), clear the goods through Russian customs and deliver them to the consignee in Yaroslavl. You get a transparent price and control at every stage of the route.

Customs clearance for Yaroslavl: Central Electronic Customs
The declaration is lodged with the Central Electronic Customs, while the goods are held at a temporary storage warehouse in the Moscow region. Since 15 July 2026 the Moscow electronic declaration centre has reported to the Central Electronic Customs; its location has not changed.
We lodge the declaration before the goods arrive, so release takes 1–2 days: the HS code and duty calculation are agreed in advance, and certificates and permits are prepared at the purchasing stage. Clearance is handled by a customs representative on the Federal Customs Service register; your customer receives the declaration with the release stamp and a full set of closing documents.
B2B only, sanctions screening first
We work with companies only: shipments from 50 kg (air: no weight limit), minimum service fee €200; no personal parcels or retail purchases. We handle only goods that are not subject to EU, UK, Swiss or US sanctions and screen HS codes and all parties before we quote. We reply within 2 business hours.
