Shipping goods from San Marino to Russia
San Marino is a small manufacturing enclave in Italy, with suppliers producing ceramics, furniture and souvenirs. It has a customs union with the EU, and export formalities are completed through Italian customs, so your goods leave the Union in the same way as Italian cargo. We collect from your premises, handle the export declaration on your behalf and send you the MRN and proof of exit for your records.
The goods travel by road to our consolidation warehouse in Warsaw and on to Moscow, where your Russian customer receives them cleared through customs and delivered. Transit times depend on the consolidation schedule and are confirmed with every quote. We work B2B only — companies and sole traders — from 50 kg per shipment (air freight has no weight limit), with a minimum service fee of €200.

What suppliers ship from San Marino to Russia
Suppliers in San Marino typically ship ceramics, furniture and souvenir products. Ceramics are fragile and heavy, so packing and weights matter; furniture is bulky and priced by volume. We check each HS code against current restrictions before accepting the cargo.
Export formalities
Under San Marino’s customs union with the EU, the export is declared through Italian customs, and the goods leave the Union under an EX1. We lodge it on your behalf — from €450 when lodged remotely, €150 if the cargo travels with us via Rotterdam — and track the MRN until the customs office of exit confirms departure. Every consignment is screened against EU, UK, Swiss and US sanctions lists.
