Russia: Eurasian Economic Commission Announces 2015 Meat Poultry Whey TRQs

On August 20, 2014, the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) published the list of commodities subject to tariff rate quota (TRQ) regulations in 2015 and the volumes of the tariff-rate quotas for imports of these goods into the Customs Union territory (i.e., Russia, Kazakhstan, and Belarus). Unchanged from 2014, Russia’s TRQ volumes appear consistent with its WTO commitments. Belarus TRQ volumes also remained unchanged, while Kazakhstan will reduce access for frozen beef in 2015. The EEC Decision shall enter into force 30 days from the date of its official publication (i.e., September 19, 2014).
