Export freight from Uzbekistan

We move goods out of a plant or warehouse in Uzbekistan to a buyer abroad: transport, documents, export clearance.

How export differs from import

Import charges sit with the buyer, export duty with you

Duties and taxes in the destination country are paid by the consignee. But since 1 July 2025 Uzbekistan levies an export duty of its own on 86 groups of raw materials — from scrap and cotton to leather and silk. We check the code before the contract is signed, not after.

Documents matter more than the rate

An error in the certificate of origin costs your buyer their duty preference — and costs you the next order. We check the set before dispatch, not at the border.

Transport is matched to the goods

Fruit and vegetables travel refrigerated and against the clock, textiles by truck or container, machinery may need an oversized scheme.

A return leg costs less

We bring cargo into Uzbekistan constantly, and a truck that arrived with an import leaves again. Export on that leg costs less than transport hired on its own.

Export duty: since 1 July 2025 the shipper pays too

Exporting from Uzbekistan used to cost the shipper only the clearance fee. Now 86 tariff positions carry an export customs duty — from one percent of the customs value up to a hundred.

How many positions sit at each rate Rates in force today. Six positions rise on a schedule — the current rate is shown.
  • 100% 37 positions Metal waste and scrap · Grain, rice, seeds · Polymers and their waste · Cotton and yarn · Gas and sulphur
  • 50% 1 position Silk
  • 30% 13 positions Livestock and meat · Grain, rice, seeds · Raw hides and leather
  • 20% 7 positions Livestock and meat · Raw hides and leather · Gas and sulphur
  • 10% 13 positions Metal waste and scrap · Polymers and their waste · Fertilizers
  • 5% 6 positions Metal waste and scrap · Raw hides and leather · Silk
  • 2% 3 positions Cotton and yarn
  • 1% 6 positions Knitted fabrics

A hundred percent means the duty equals the customs value of the goods: the consignment costs twice as much, and exporting at that rate makes no sense.

The rate falls as processing deepens: raw cotton at 100%, yarn made from it at 2%, knitted fabric at 1%. Silk works the same way: cocoons 50%, raw silk 5%. Food follows a different logic — the rate keeps it inside the country: rice 100%, wheat and meat 30%.

Eight positions are charged differently: a percentage, but not less than a fixed sum per tonne — so the weight matters, not just the value.

The list moves: the interdepartmental WTO commission reviews these duties every quarter and may propose changes. We check ours against the decree itself.

Export documents

  • The foreign trade contract with the buyer
  • Invoice and packing list
  • Certificate of origin — form ST-1 for CIS countries, form A or the general form elsewhere
  • Permits where the goods require them: a phytosanitary certificate for plant products, a veterinary one for animal products
  • Transport documents: a CMR note for road, an SMGS waybill for rail

Frequently asked questions

Which lanes do you carry export on?

Every lane we run for imports: Russia, Kazakhstan, China, Korea, Turkey, Europe, the UAE, India, Iran, Turkmenistan, Tajikistan. Russia and Kazakhstan by road and rail, China through Dostyk and Altynkol, Turkey and Europe by road or via a sea leg, Iran and India through Bandar Abbas. We pick the route to suit the goods and the deadline, not the other way round.

Who pays the duties on an export?

Import charges in the destination country are paid by the buyer. Your side covers export clearance and the documents evidencing the origin of the goods.

Why does the certificate of origin matter?

It is what gives your buyer a preferential duty rate: within the CIS, an ST-1 certificate removes the import duty entirely. Without it the buyer pays the full rate — and next time chooses a different supplier.

Do you carry perishable goods?

Yes, in refrigerated transport with the temperature maintained. For fruit and vegetables the transit time is part of the quality, so we build the route around the clock rather than the cheapest rate.

Can we send a trial consignment?

Yes. As groupage we take from a single pallet — a first delivery to a new buyer does not need a whole truck.
