Parties, documents and specifics for every deal scheme
Contract, shipment with a declaration, 0% VAT confirmation
A contract with the Chinese buyer in English and Russian: goods with HS codes, price and currency, delivery term, payment. From 10 million ₽ the contract is registered with the bank.
Export goods declaration on shipment, invoice, packing list and a transport document — bill of lading, railway consignment note, CMR or air waybill.
The 0% rate (subparagraph 1 of paragraph 1 of Article 164 of the Russian Tax Code) is confirmed with documents under Article 165 of the Russian Tax Code no later than 180 calendar days from the date the goods are placed under the export procedure.
The English column is for the buyer, the Russian one for the bank and customs

The contract is checked by the bank, customs and the tax authority
Documents, VAT, CISG, contract
The preview of the whole document is free: you see both columns in full and pay only if it suits you. No subscription, no registration.
When you export to China, three parties look at the contract: the bank — at registration and when the proceeds arrive, customs — when the goods are released, the tax authority — when the 0% rate is confirmed. So the details in the contract, invoice and declaration must match: parties, goods, price, currency.
By sea — FOB or CIF; by rail and by road — rules for any mode of transport, for example FCA or DAP. The rule determines where risk passes to the buyer and who pays for carriage.
For the reverse deal — buying from a Chinese supplier — there is the supply contract from China. The specifics of working with Chinese partners are on the contract with China page.
