The State Duma of the Russian Federation simplifies registration of supplies of Russian oil products to South Ossetia
The Russian State Duma adopted a law ratifying the protocol to the intergovernmental agreement with South Ossetia on the regime of trade in goods, aimed at simplifying the export of Russian petroleum products to this country.
Under this agreement, when exporting Russian oil products from Russia to South Ossetia (low-octane gasoline, diesel fuel, bitumen), export customs duties are not applied. Moreover, the volumes of such duty-free deliveries are determined annually.
