Russian car factories might stop due to customs rules
The heads of General Motors, Toyota, and Nissan Russia-based factories placed their official petition with the Head of the Russian Federation Customs Service Andrei Yemelyanov in order to explain that their businesses run a risk of assembly line stoppages due to the recent changes in the customs clearance regulations for car parts, says Kommersant. The car manufacturers say in the petition that several customs posts have already been closed down in Saint Petersburg, which made the factories ‘adopt new logistics schemes urgently and incur additional losses related to the car parts delivery.’
