In the Russian Baltic ports there is a shortage of container cargo. Meanwhile, business of the European neighbours in the Baltic is better. An important competitive advantage of the ports of Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania over the Russian Baltic ports is logistic added value, that is creation of the greatest added value in the logistic chain.
What services attract customers in the European ports of the Baltic States?
This is additional activities with goods, which are performed before crossing the Russian border:
— repacking of goods;
— weighing;
— marking;
— changing of transport documents;
— edition of documents controlling goods disposition;
2. Free storage of goods without payment of customs duties for a period up to 60 days is another popular service among importers. In the Russian port the importer must pay the customs duty within two weeks.
