A special website for exporters and importers was launched in Kazakhstan. The so-called ‘guidebook’ for business published a list of sanctions constraints and goods prohibited for export and import to Russia and Belarus in order to warn entrepreneurs.
“With the imposition of sanctions against Russia and Belarus by a number of countries, entrepreneurs have many questions now: does this or that product or bank fall under sanctions? It is relevant considering not only the export of Kazakh products to these countries. As you know, we freely trade with the whole world, and in the conditions of a single Eurasian customs space, the transfer of goods is as simple as possible. In addition, quite a lot of goods oriented to Russia and Belarus come through Kazakhstan. And our task now is not to fall under the ‘special attention’ of the countries that have imposed sanctions because of the risk of re-export,” wrote Minister of Trade and Integration Bakhyt Sultanov on his Facebook account.
In addition, a list of international companies that have decided to leave the markets of the two countries can be found on this platform. All information is taken from the official websites of governments. Moreover, it will be updated as new data are available, the minister said.
