The Eurasian Economic Commission’s Board has decided to establish and allocate tariff quotas for certain types of meat products and whey for 2025. "In accordance with the Treaty on the Eurasian Economic Union, the EEC determines tariff quotas for certain categories of agricultural goods originating from third countries and imported into the EAEU customs territory, taking into account the balances of their consumption and production in the Member States as well as the countries’ obligations to the World Trade Organization," reminded Vahagn Ghazaryan, Director of the EEC Department for Customs Tariff and Non-tariff Regulation.
For the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation, tariff quotas for 2025 are set in the amounts recorded in the protocols on the States’ accession to the WTO.
