During the customs clearance process at the Airport’s Inland Customs Clearance Office, Kosovo Customs identified a case in which goods had been incorrectly declared.

Customs officials became suspicious while verifying the documents, as the shipment had been described as “Polycarboxylate Superplasticizer.”

A physical inspection was carried out to determine whether the information matched the contents of the package. The inspection showed that the declared goods were not those contained in the shipment.

The inspected package contained medicinal weight-loss products that are not approved for sale on the Kosovo market. Their import requires a permit from the Kosovo Agency for Medicinal Products (AKPPM).

The value of the goods was calculated at 1,775.90 euros, excluding duties and taxes.

According to the case information, the party sought to evade customs controls and mandatory procedures by changing the description of the goods and providing inaccurate information. The aim was to avoid duties as well as the permits required to place the products into free circulation.

Customs has initiated the relevant procedural measures in accordance with the legislation in force. The party’s actions have been classified as a customs offense under the Customs and Excise Code.
