Overview

When you need a legalised packing list in Russia

The packing list describes how a shipment is packed: number of packages, marks and numbers, dimensions and weights. Customs officers use it to inspect cargo, and chambers use it to support the certificate of origin. The exporter prepares the packing list on letterhead, showing packages, marks, net and gross weights for each item.

European buyers rarely need legalised shipping documents for routine trade, but authorities and banks may ask for them in tenders, disputes or special import regimes.

Authorities, banks and business partners in Russia usually ask for a legalised packing list for physical inspection at customs, supporting the certificate of origin or insurance and cargo claims.

A packing list issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Russia accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

Russia accepts the MEA apostille. Authorities there may ask for a sworn Russian translation made in Russia; where a certified translation from India is accepted, we can arrange it.

Process

The Russia process for an Indian packing list

  1. Share your document and buyer's checklist

    Send a scan of the packing list and any list your buyer or authority in Russia gave you. We confirm the route, timeline and an all-inclusive quote.

  2. Notarisation

    A notary in India verifies the signature on the packing list or certifies the copy, which is the first stamp in the chain.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    An Indian Chamber of Commerce verifies your company and signatory and stamps the packing list.

  4. MEA apostille

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.

  5. Back to you

    The finished packing list is returned by tracked courier, or collected from our New Ashok Nagar office, ready for use in Russia.

What to send us

  • Matching commercial invoice and certificate of origin
  • Request letter on company letterhead
  • Bill of lading or airway bill copy
  • Original packing list, signed and stamped
  • Certified Russian translation, if the authority in Russia asks (we arrange it)

Avoid rejection

  • Do not get the document stamped by an embassy; an apostille country only needs the MEA apostille.
  • Legalise it in the same batch as the invoice and COO.
  • Package counts and weights must match the bill of lading.
  • Use the same invoice number and date as the commercial invoice.
