Restrictions on import of flour to Kyrgyzstan lifted

Kyrgyzstan established equal tax conditions for entrepreneurs from the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union, who import and sell flour, the press service of the EEC reported.

It was noted that since 2016 in Kyrgyzstan the sale of flour produced from imported grain was exempted from the payment of value added tax, while the flour imported from the EEU countries was taxed at a rate of 12 percent.

Such provisions of the Kyrgyz legislation created unequal conditions for the supply of flour from other EEU states and were contrary to the provisions of the EEU Treaty.
