The attractiveness of buying a car with low mileage in Kazakhstan is explained by the fact that in this country the assembly of many foreign cars of the Kazakh assembly is established, which are distinguished by good quality and affordable prices. At present, driving a Kazakh car to Russia is no more difficult than from fraternal Belarus.
Since July 1, 2010, Russia has entered into customs agreements with Kazakhstan, according to which Russians can export duty-free any car from Kazakhstan imported into the territory of this country or produced there before January 1, 2010. The only conditions: the age of the car must be from 3 to 10 years and it must comply with the environmental standards of Euro 4. If the car is imported by a participant in the resettlement program of Russians living abroad, compliance with environmental standards is not required.
The import of car parts is subject to the same duties as cars.
For the legal preparation of a car for driving, it is necessary to have a purchase and sale agreement with you, if the purpose of the trip to Kazakhstan was exactly the purchase of a car, a certificate of environmental compliance of the vehicle, documents on the removal of the car from Kazakh registration, transit numbers. After passing through the Kazakh customs, a certificate of import of the car will be issued. It remains to present all the listed documents to the Russian customs officers and get the TCP. And after receiving the PTS - register the purchase with the traffic police.
Also, before the trip, take care of the presence of a jack, a set of keys, a first aid kit and a fire extinguisher. Inquire in advance about the differences between our and Kazakh traffic rules.
Hyundai and Kia cars, Renault Megan family sedans, SsangYong SUVs are assembled in Kazakhstan. There are also factories for the assembly of VAZ and GAZ vehicles. Foreign cars can be bought at a lower price than the average in Russia. The low cost is explained by the fact that cars assembled in Kazakhstan are not subject to customs duties.
When buying a car from hands in Kazakhstan, be sure to check the car for theft. If, when registering a car in Russia, its criminal past emerges, you will have to go back to solve problems. Check the car and through Interpol.
According to Kazakh law, the purchase of a car from an individual is drawn up by a notarized sales contract with the written consent of the seller's spouse. In addition, a vehicle inspection ticket is required to avoid being fined by the Russian traffic police.
When driving a car from Kazakhstan to Moscow, it is recommended to adhere to the following route: Karaganda - Astana - Atbasar - Surgan - Kostanay - Komsomolets - Troitsk - Chelyabinsk - Kazan - Moscow. The section between Chelyabinsk and Sim runs along mountain roads and is considered dangerous, so most drivers tend to drive it in the daytime. However, in the daytime there are a lot of truckers on this road, so some people prefer to get to Kazan after Chelyabinsk through Orenburg and Ufa.
