Where valves are needed
District heating in Almaty, Astana, Shymkent and other cities runs through cold winters and is constantly being renewed. Water utilities, oil and gas, mining and power all use GOST gate valves, globe valves and check valves.
EAEU requirements
Kazakhstan is an EAEU member. Valves fall under the Customs Union technical regulations, mainly TR CU 010/2011 on machinery and equipment and TR CU 032/2013 on pressure equipment, depending on the product. An EAEU certificate or declaration of conformity is required.
Duties
Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan are parties to the CIS free trade agreement, so goods of Uzbek origin usually enter duty-free with a CT-1 certificate of origin.
Logistics
By road through the border crossings near Tashkent: a few hours to Shymkent and 1 to 3 days to Almaty and Astana. Large orders can go by rail wagon.
