Simplified import-export of goods for Astana EXPO 2017 Exhibition 1. General information on ATA Carnet This Information Guide has been designed with the purpose to familiarize the Participants of the International Specialized Exhibition EXPO 2017 in Astana (hereinafter referred to as Astana EXPO 2017) on the operation of the ATA Carnet system in the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In December 1961 in Brussels, the Customs Co-operation Council (GATT) adopted the “Customs Convention on ATA Carnet for temporary importation of goods.” In June 1990, the “Convention on Temporary Admission with Annexes” was adopted. There are currently 75 countries which have joined the ATA Carnet. ATA Carnet is an international customs document that replaces customs declarations and allows for the simplified and accelerated processing of temporary import and export of goods in connection with the exhibitions and fairs, as well as for transportation of commercial samples, professional equipment and some other categories of goods across the border. The need for temporary import and export of goods and equipment according to ATA Carnet arises when organizing a tour for music and circus troupes abroad, cultural events and various exhibitions in other countries. It should be noted that the use of the ATA Carnet for temporary import of goods is not mandatory. The Participants of the Exhibition (Declarants) decide on their own – whether to use ATA Carnet or to pass the procedures for customs clearance of goods under the national rules of the Republic of Kazakhstan or transit countries. 2. Advantages of using ATA Carnet • It replaces the customs declaration and exempts the Declarant from the need to submit an electronic declaration; • It provides accelerated customs clearance, which main idea is that the customs officer makes special notes on the appropriate sheets of the ATA Carnet; • It exempts the Declarant from payment of customs payments, including customs clearance fee and security to pay the customs payments; • It is an international financial guarantee to pay the customs payments; it is the guarantor of specially authorized organizations; • It provides opportunity to visit up to 10 countries during the entire period of validity of the document (one year); • The possibility to visit an unlimited number of countries. Allows to use one type of document throughout the entire route, regardless of the number of crossed borders (provided that the countries on the route are parties to the Convention on Temporary Admission). The Participants need to know that the use of the ATA Carnet does not exempt from the obligation to submit permits for imported goods. Therefore, you can apply to the Kazakh competent authorities for obtaining relevant permits. It is recommended to sign beforehand a Customs Declaration Agreement with the customs representative (broker) at the point of destination (delivery) in the territory of Kazakhstan. The customs broker at the destination will ensure the documents preparation and the customs clearance. 3. ATA Carnet in Kazakhstan The Republic of Kazakhstan has ratified the Convention on Temporary Admission, done at Istanbul on 26 June 1990, by Act No. 346-IV ZRK dated 3 November 2010 (hereinafter referred to as the Convention). The goods covered by ATA Carnet, which are allowed to Kazakhstan for temporary duty-free import, are set out below in the annexes to the Convention on Temporary Admission dated 26 June 1990: Annex A: concerning temporary admission papers (ATA Carnets and CPD Carnets); Annex B.1: concerning goods for display or use at exhibitions, fairs, meetings or similar events; Annex B.2: concerning professional equipment; Annex B.3: concerning containers, pallets, packings, samples and other goods imported in connection with a commercial operation; Annex B.4: concerning goods imported in connection with a manufacturing operation; Annex B.5: concerning goods imported for educational, scientific or cultural purposes; Annex B.6: concerning travellers’ personal effects and goods imported for sports purposes; Annex B.7: concerning tourist publicity material; Annex D: concerning animals with the following reservations: “The Republic of Kazakhstan does not consider itself bound by the provisions of paragraph 1 of Article 4 in Annex D and paragraphs 12 and 13 of the Appendix in Annex D.” Please note that Kazakhstan has not acceded to the Convention in the following annexes: 1) Annex B.4: concerning goods imported in connection with a manufacturing operation; 2) Annex B.8: concerning goods imported as frontier traffic; 3) Annex B.9: concerning goods imported for humanitarian purposes; 4) Annex C: concerning means of transport; 5) Annex E: concerning goods imported with partial relief from import duties and taxes. In accordance with the provisions of the Convention, there are the following restrictions: it is not allowed to lease or otherwise use for fee, or export from the venue the goods imported according to ATA Carnet. The Participants to the Exhibition must get the information on possible restrictions on the importation of certain categories of goods and equipment in advance from the chambers of commerce and industry in the country of departure or the guaranteeing organization of the country of temporary admission. 4. Use of ATA Carnet for Astana EXPO 2017 If you import goods to Kazakhstan from the country issuing ATA Carnet, you can use a number of advantages during customs clearance of goods that are temporarily imported to Astana Expo 2017 Exhibition. The use of ATA Carnet will simplify the customs clearance of goods in countries en route to Kazakhstan, provided that such countries also recognize ATA Carnet. The ATA Carnet is an international customs document that is issued for a fee by the national chambers of commerce or other national associations authorized by the customs authorities in the countries that are parties to the relevant international convention. The ATA Carnet replaces standard customs papers required for the import and export of goods. The ATA Carnet is valid for temporarily imported goods (for a period of up to one year) which can be fully exempted from customs payments for temporary importation. Its effect does not apply to expendables. The Participants to Astana EXPO 2017 are recommended to import such goods under the Special Customs Procedure and they will have customs privileges: exemption from payment of import customs duties and taxes, without the application of non-tariff and technical regulating measures. Detailed recommendations are contained in the document titled Logistics Guide for EXPO 2017. Currently, there is a Special Customs Procedure in Kazakhstan approved by the Decision of the Commission of the Customs Union No. 329 dated May 20, 2010 and Decision of the Government of Kazakhstan No. 522 dated July 15, 2015, in relation to foreign goods imported to Kazakhstan and intended for the organization and holding the International Specialized Exhibition EXPO 2017 in Astana. This procedure does not affect the provisions of the Convention on the Temporary Admission (Istanbul Convention) of goods and does not prevent the import of goods intended to hold Astana Expo 2017 events using ATA Carnet. The goods intended for commercial activities will undergo a standard procedure for customs clearance with payment of all customs duties and compliance with import requirements. If the goods stay in the territory of Kazakhstan longer than the validity period of the ATA Carnet (but no more than one year), it is necessary to apply to the organization that issued ATA Carnet with a request for reissuance of a new ATA Carnet book. A new ATA Carnet book shall be presented to the customs authority at the border crossing point to the customs territory of the Customs Union (hereinafter referred to as the Customs Union), which carried out the customs clearance of temporary admission. We advise to indicate in the shipping documents accompanying the goods, as well as in Section C Intended Use of Goods of the

Yuri Rudenko from Almaty Region was the third unregistered Baptist pastor to be jailed for three days for refusing to pay fines for unregistered worship. Baptists point out that this breaks Kazakhstan's Constitution, but officials have refused to discuss this with Forum 18. The jailing took place as Elizaveta Drenicheva, a Russian working as a missionary for the Unification Church (commonly known as the Moonies), was jailed for two years for sharing her beliefs. Other religious believers who strongly disagree with her beliefs, as well as human rights defenders, are alarmed by the jail sentence. "This is a highly dangerous precedent," one Protestant who preferred not to be identified told Forum 18. "It seems to me that any believer who preaches about sin and how to be saved from it could be convicted in the same way." Baptist churches in Akmola region have also been raided and their members questioned, and another Baptist pastor is facing the threat of jail tomorrow (4 February). Kazakhstan has punished a third unregistered Baptist pastor in Almaty Region with three-day imprisonment, Forum 18 News Service has learnt.

    Guidelines for Shipment of Goods Subject to Customs Clearance

    KAZAN 2015 1 GUIDELINES FOR SHIPMENT OF GOODS SUBJECT TO CUSTOMS CLEARANCE Dear participants of the 16th FINA World Championships! The Guidelines contain important practical information regarding import to Russia and export from Russia of foreign goods to be used within the framework of the sport event. Please note that the Guidelines are not applicable to the goods carried by individuals in their accompanied luggage. The Guidelines apply to the goods carried to and back from the country as cargo transportations. GUIDELINES FOR SHIPMENT OF GOODS SUBJECT TO CUSTOMS CLEARANCE KAZAN 2015 2 1. Introduction The Russian Federation is a member-state of the Eurasian Economic Union which includes the Republic of Armenia, the Republic of Belarus, the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation. The territory of the above mentioned states forms a customs territory of the Eurasian Economic Union. As a rule, the customs authorities are located at the customs borders of the Eurasian Economic Union (border customs authorities) or within the territory of the Eurasian Economic Union (internal customs authorities). The main criterion for choosing the customs authority for customs clearance of the goods is the way of their shipment to Russia - by air or land transport. The Organising Committee recommends you to arrange customs clearance of the goods with the internal customs authorities of the city of Kazan. The customs transit procedure shall be applied for delivery of the goods to the internal customs authorities of Kazan. The said procedure shall be used if: - the cargo has been delivered to the border by air by international airlines and shall be further shipped to Kazan by air by domestic airlines; - the cargo has been delivered to the border by air by international airlines and shall be further shipped to Kazan by motor transport; - the cargo has been delivered to the border by motor transport and shall be further shipped to Kazan by motor transport as well.

    Mining and Smelting Industry Mining and Smelting Industry

    Mining and smelting industry Mining and smelting industry Mining and smelting industry is the basis for industrialization of the national economy. 30% of the world's chrome ore reserves, 25% of manganese ores, 10% of iron ores are concentrated in Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan reserves of copper, lead and zinc amount to 10% and 13% of the world reserves, respectively. Out of the 118 elements of the periodic table, 99 were revealed in Kazakhstan, 70 elements have explored reserves, and more than 60 elements are involved in production. Mining is one of the most socially important branches of the economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan, on which development of regions, cities and towns, growth of jobs, as well as social, industrial and transport infrastructure are dependent. Development and processing of mineral resources in long term will remain an important source of economic growth. Large mining and smelting enterprises of the republic are mainly focused on production of primary metals. Most of their products are exported, while domestic market receives about 20%. A structure of production is dominated by raw materials and semi-finished products, which are processed abroad and re-imported into Kazakhstan in the form of finished products. Based on results of the industry overview, investment niches of ferrous and nonferrous metallurgy were selected - development of copper, iron ore and gold deposits. It should also be noted that activities of mining and smelting enterprises were included in the list of priority investment directions in the Republic of Kazakhstan. Accordingly, it is assumed that these projects will receive support from the state along the entire production chain.
