1. For exported goods, the submission of customs declarations shall be effected after having gathered goods at places notified by customs declarants and at least 4 hours before the means of transport leave; for export goods sent by express mail service, within 2 hours at the latest before the means of transport leave.

2. For imported goods, the submission of customs declarations shall be made before the goods arrive at the border gates or within 30 days from the date the goods arrive at the border gates.

In case of transport means entering e-customs declarations, the day the goods arrive at the border gate is the date the transport means arrives at the border according to the carrier's notice on the customs electronic data processing system.
