Ukraine has postponed the ban on automobile imports from Russia


 

Daily-Motor.- The Ukrainian Cabinet of Ministers has announced a 6 months postponement to the ban on automobile imports from Russia.

The Ukrainian government had previously added all types of vehicles to the list of prohibited goods for imports from Russia, including passenger cars. The ban was due to come into effect as of 1 July 2019, however, recently postponed to 1 January 2020. 

As one may remember, there was already a ban on the import of Lada, GAZ and UAZ automobiles to Ukraine, however, the vehicles have reappeared in the country later on with a 5% import duty, which affected the prices of the automobiles significantly.
