Customs officials from the Territorial Directorate of the Customs Company in Ruse (at the Danube) discovered a lot of robotic vacuum cleaners and a mini-excavator with out a accompanying documentation in a container transported via a freight educate, the Customs Company mentioned right here on Friday.
The seizure resulted from coordinated movements between the customs workplaces in Burgas (at the Black Sea) and Ruse.
On April 1, 2025, following a request via the Burgas Customs Territorial Directorate, staff from the Operative Regulate Ruse sector at Ruse Customs performed an inspection of a container touring on a freight educate. In keeping with paperwork supplied via the service, the container carried groupage consignments en path from China thru Turkiye and Bulgaria to Germany.
As soon as the products have been unloaded, the customs officials discovered 801 robotic vacuum cleaners and a mini-excavator that had now not been declared and have been lacking the desired beginning paperwork. The undeclared items have been seized, and investigations into their evidence of beginning are ongoing.
The inspection used to be a part of the Customs Company’s compensatory measures following the elimination of border controls on the Eu Union’s inside borders, after the Republic of Bulgaria used to be admitted as a complete member of the Schengen Space.
