# Customs Broker in Kyiv: Services and Customs Posts

## Customs Broker in Kyiv: What We Clear and at Which Posts

A customs broker in Kyiv clears air, road and consolidated cargo at Kyiv Customs posts and at Boryspil airport — under the import, export and transit regimes. The broker takes on the entire technical and legal cycle: determines the UKTZED code, calculates customs payments, prepares and checks documents, files the customs declaration and supports the cargo through to release into free circulation. The base rate for processing one declaration is from 100 USD, and the customs formalities themselves, with a complete set of documents, take up to 4 working hours.

Kyiv is the country's largest business and logistics hub. Air cargo arrives through Boryspil international airport, road consignments come from the EU, and consolidated cargo is placed at temporary storage warehouses and cargo terminals in the city and region. For an importer it matters which Kyiv post and which terminal to use for clearance, so as not to overpay for storage or lose days. **Trans-Hope** has worked as a customs broker in Kyiv since 2009 and knows the specifics of every capital post.

## Where Clearance Takes Place in Kyiv: Customs Posts

Cargo in the capital is cleared at the posts of [Kyiv Customs](https://customs.gov.ua/kiyivska-mitnitsia-derzhmitsluzhbi). Each post has its own specialisation and service area, so the post is chosen for the type of cargo, the delivery route and the terminal's workload — this directly affects the speed of release.

Kyiv customs posts
| Customs post | Address and what to know |
| --- | --- |
| “Stolychny” | 58 Novopyrohivska St. — the Trans-Hope office is at the same address |
| “Kyiv-central” | 8-A Vaclav Havel Blvd — clearance in the central part of the city |
| “Zakhidny” (Western) | 20 Malynska St. — cargo of the western direction |
| “Lisky” | 22 Dovbusha St. — clearance on the left bank of Kyiv |
| “Skhidny” (Eastern) | cargo of the eastern direction of Kyiv region |
| “Spetsializovanyi” (Specialised) | specific categories of cargo and special regimes |
| “Boryspil Airport” | international air cargo through the airport |

The broker's proximity to the post and knowledge of how a specific terminal operates speed up clearance: the specialist prepares the package in advance for the post's requirements, responds promptly to the inspector's queries and avoids cargo standing idle at the temporary storage warehouse, where each day of storage is paid separately.

## What a Broker Clears in Kyiv

In the capital the broker handles all the main types of cargo and directions:

-   **Air cargo** — clearance at Boryspil airport, together with [air delivery](https://t-h-logistics.com/en/air_delivery) from China, the EU, the USA and other countries.
-   **Road and consolidated cargo** — imports from the EU and consolidated consignments through temporary storage warehouses and terminals in Kyiv.
-   **Import, export, transit** — selecting the customs regime for the specific task and route.
-   **Excisable and permit-controlled goods** — with preparation of certificates, permits and additional types of control.

The broker's full role, duties and responsibility are set out on our [customs broker](https://t-h-logistics.com/en/customs_broker) page.

## How Clearance Works in Kyiv: Stages

The procedure follows the same logic for import and export and differs in the set of documents. Below is the sequence from accreditation to release of the cargo at a Kyiv post.

### How customs clearance works in Kyiv

The full cycle from accreditation of the FEA entity to release of the cargo at a Kyiv customs post.

⏱ 1–3 working days · 💰 from 100 USD per declaration

1.  Accreditation of the FEA entity
    
    Registering the company with the customs authority — a one-time procedure before the first clearance in Kyiv.
    
2.  Preparing documents
    
    Collecting the contract, invoice, packing list, transport and permit documents and checking them for consistency.
    
3.  Classification by UKTZED
    
    Determining the 10-digit code that drives the duty, VAT and excise rates.
    
4.  Calculating payments
    
    Determining the customs value and calculating duty, VAT and excise before filing the declaration.
    
5.  Filing the declaration at a Kyiv post
    
    Electronic declaring and support at the chosen post of Kyiv Customs.
    
6.  Customs control and release
    
    Checking documents and, if needed, inspection; after the payments are made the cargo is released into free circulation.
    

Step by step, the same procedure applies in any city under [customs clearance](https://t-h-logistics.com/en/customs_clearance).

## Documents for Clearance in Kyiv

The completeness and consistency of the package directly affect the speed of release. Discrepancies between the invoice, contract and transport documents are the main cause of delays at the post and of rising storage charges.

Documents for customs clearance in Kyiv
| Document group | What it includes |
| --- | --- |
| Commercial | Foreign economic contract, invoice, packing list |
| Transport | CMR, Air Waybill (for air cargo), Bill of Lading, calculation of transport costs |
| Value confirmation | Payment documents, price lists, export declaration of the country of dispatch |
| Permits | Certificates, licences, permits depending on the goods |
| Company | FEA entity documents, power of attorney for the broker |

## How Much It Costs and How Fast

The broker's fee in Kyiv starts from 100 USD per declaration and depends on the number of commodity items (UKTZED codes), the customs regime, the type of cargo, urgency and the need for additional documents. State customs payments — duty, VAT and excise — are calculated separately from the fee and go to the budget. Importantly, the weight and value of the goods do not directly affect the broker's fee — it is determined by the amount of work on the documents. A detailed calculation of the fee is available under [cost of customs broker services](https://t-h-logistics.com/en/customs_brokerage_services_cost).

## Common Importer Mistakes When Clearing in Kyiv

-   **Wrong UKTZED code** — leads to an incorrect duty rate, additional charges and reprocessing.
-   **Incomplete document set** — the cargo is held at the post until the missing papers are provided, and storage charges at the warehouse grow.
-   **Understating the customs value** — customs may adjust the value using its own sources, which increases payments.
-   **Clearing without regard to the post's specifics** — choosing an unsuitable post or terminal delays release.
-   **Starting without accreditation** — clearance is impossible until the company is registered with the customs authority.
