Kazakhstan got KZT 42 bln more import customs duties in 2010 - B. Zhamishev
ASTANA. February 2. KAZINFORM /Kanat Kulshmanov/ "Kazakhstan has received KZT 42 bln more import customs duties within the Customs Union," Minister of Finance Bolat Zhamishev told at the press conference in Astana today.
"In 2010 we got KZT 42 bln 200 mln more payments for imported goods", Zhamishev said.
The Minister reminded that the import duties are distributed among the budgets of Kazakhstan, Russia and Belarus within the Customs Union.
"Such growth was provided due to increase in Russia's and Belarus' import by 36.1% and 34% correspondingly since everything is distributed by a formula independently on the volumes of payments. We have received more from Russia and Belarus than planned", the Minister explained.
According to him, such dynamics will not be constant. The situation will be improved with the growth of import to Kazakhstan.
