Russia Trade Contract with Venezuela: Key Features

Venezuela is one of the world's largest oil producers and a traditional partner of Russia in Latin America. Cooperation spans the oil and gas industry, military-technical cooperation, and food supplies.

Venezuelan company details

In the contract, specify the RIF (Registro de Información Fiscal) — the Venezuelan tax number — along with the company's full name and address. Verify it through Seniat (seniat.gob.ve).

Work with Venezuelan counterparties is conducted within the framework of Russian legislation. However, Western correspondent banks may block payments. Check the settlement route with your bank in advance.
