The economic dispute between a major international construction company and the Specialized Customs Complex Tashkent-AERO involved a claim for over UZS 1.2 billion in customs duties for the temporary import of goods into Uzbekistan. The customs authority demanded payment, alleging violations of temporary import regulations.
The PraeLegal Uzbekistan team, led by Managing Partner Davranbek Ahmatov, conducted a thorough review of customs legislation governing temporary imports and carried out an in-depth analysis of customs declarations and supporting documents. The legal team carefully examined the calculations of customs duties and identified errors in the assessments, proving the baselessness of the customs authority’s claims.
Through a professionally structured defense strategy, the lawyers of PraeLegal Uzbekistan successfully demonstrated the illegality of the customs claims in court. As a result, the court ruled against the Tashkent-AERO Specialized Customs Complex, dismissing the lawsuit and preventing the client from incurring unjustified financial losses.
