Detectives of the Economic Security Bureau of Ukraine exposed officials of a company who evaded customs duties during the clearance of consumer goods at the Kyiv customs of the State Customs Service of Ukraine.

They provided false information about the country of origin, cost and actual quantity of charging stations, medical equipment, clothing, spare parts of well-known car brands imported into the customs territory of Ukraine.

According to this scheme starting in March 2023, allegedly with the assistance of customs officials, the company cleared consignments of goods under 51 customs declarations. Currently the detectives of the ESBU have initiated their inspection.

During the audit of one of these customs declarations the fact of customs duty evasion in the amount of UAH 5 million has already been established.

Investigative actions are ongoing and relevant examinations are being conducted. Prosecutors of the Prosecutor general's office are providing procedural guidance.
