CUSTOMS REGULATIONS

HOUSEHOLD GOODS AND PERSONAL EFFECTS

Shippers must be in Mongolia when their shipments arrive and shipper must have at least a six month work permit to clear duty free.

WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THAT SHIPMENTS BE HELD AT ORIGIN UNTIL THE IMPORT PERMIT HAS ISSUED OR UNTIL CALLED FORWARD BY JVK.

MAERSK, CHINA SHIPPING AND COSCO ALL CAN OFFER THROUGH BILL OF LADING TO ULAN BAATAR SO USE THEM AND DO NOT JUST FORWARD TO XINGANG PORT IN CHINA AS TRANSHIPMENT IS PROBLEMATIC AND EXPENSIVE.

All shipments will be inspected by Customs so make sure packing lists are as accurate as possible.

Diplomatic shipments are not subject to duty. Shipper’s Diplomatic Card, Duty Exemption Certificate and a Diplomatic Customs Form are required for clearance.

Shipments that contain solid wood packaging material need to be either fumigated or heat treated at origin (ISPM15 compliant). Failure to do so could entail shipment being subject additional quarantine charges at port of entry.

PROHIBITED AND RESTRICTED GOODS

Never mix personal effects with commercial goods. Generally, pornography, guns, narcotics, gambling instruments and subversive literature are banned. Do not send any alcohol in shipment.

MOTOR VEHICLES (AUTOS AND MOTORBIKES)

It is very difficult to get a permit for non-diplomats. We recommend that you do not ship. Diplomats require Diplomatic Card, Duty Exemption Certificate and a Diplomatic Customs Form for clearance.

ANIMALS AND PETS

Pets may be imported upon presentation of a valid health certificate, rabies certificate and vaccination certificate. Shipper must obtain a valid Import Permit prior to shipment.
