the New rules will operate in the entire Eurasian economic Union, which includes Russia, Belarus, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, RIA Novosti reported.
In Russia, the limits do not apply to the aggregate amount of parcels per month, and on one parcel. This means that the buyer can obtain duty-free several packages of goods of 200 € each.
When you order goods worth more than 200 euros or weighing more than 31 kg, you will need to pay a fee in the amount of 15% of the cost, but not less than 2 euros per 1 kg. And if you just will have exceeded the weight and value of the package will pay the greatest toll of the two.
