ATA Carnet Issue

                                                     

     The ATA Carnet is an international customs document - a customs declaration for the temporary export of goods to the countries-participants of ATA Guarantee system. The Convention on Temporary Import which was signed in Istanbul in 1990 determines the operation of ATA carnets.
Advantages of ATA Carnets:
  • Temporary import of goods for up to 1 year into the territory of the countries participating in the international system of ATA carnets without paying the necessary customs duties.
  • No deposit is needed for customs duties, since Carnet ATA is an international guarantee.
  • The ATA Carnet replaces the registration of at least four customs declarations (temporary export, temporary import, previous export and reverse import declarations).
  • The ATA Carnet is an international guarantee of import duties payment and taxes in case of violation of the temporary import regime.
  • The ATA Carnet allows you to fill out additional customs documents when crossing the border.
  • One can visit several countries participating in the international system of the ATA Carnet with one ATA Carnet document.
  • It is not a mandatory document for temporary export / import, the declarant himself decides whether to use  the ATA Carnet or not.
The ATA Carnet is used in 77 countries of Europe, North America, South America, Asia, Africa, and Oceania.
Ukraine has been a part to the Istanbul Convention since 2004.
The Istanbul Convention contains the categories of goods for which temporary import of the ATA Carnet can be applied:
  • goods intended for display and use at exhibitions, fairs, meetings, and similar events;
  • professional equipment (press, radio, and television equipment, cinematographic equipment, etc.);
  • containers, pallets, packaging, etc. which are imported within the framework of a trading operation;
  • goods imported as part of a production operation (matrices, molds, cliches and similar objects, measuring instruments and tools, special tools and accessories used in the production of goods);

  • goods imported for humanitarian purposes;
  • animals (for the purposes of training, treatment, participation in public events, rescue operations).
     The goods specified in the ATA Carnet can be exported and returned in one or more batches.
The ATA Carnet is a book of A4 format, consisting of a certain number of detachable and non-separable letters of different colours and purposes. Detachable sheets remain with the customs authorities of the transit countries. The number of detachable and non-separable letters depends on the number of countries of temporary import and transit.
