What is Customs broker?
A legal entity of Uzbekistan that, under a contract with the owner of the goods (the declarant) or an authorised person, performs customs clearance work on that person's instructions and on their behalf. The broker collects the documents, fills in and submits the CCD, and assumes the declarant's rights and obligations when the customs value is determined. The Customs Code specifically stresses that the broker's rights, obligations and liability set by law cannot be narrowed by the contract with the client. The broker must not disclose information received from the consignor or consignee of the goods that constitutes a secret protected by law, and must not use it for personal purposes.
