How to protect your business from force majeure under foreign trade contracts?

The Russian Chamber of Commerce and Industry issues certificates of force majeure on foreign trade contracts to business entities.

Specialists from the Omsk Region Export Support Center personally checked all communication channels to reduce the time spent searching for the necessary information. In order to refer to force majeure in an international contract, it is necessary to obtain an appropriate certificate from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of the Russian Federation.

"It is worth noting that the certificate is recognized in all countries. Please call the CCI RF hotline at +7-495-620-04-01. In a telephone conversation with a specialist, you need to specify all aspects of the contract for which you want to declare force majeure: the subject, the country of the counterparty, the type of goods / works / services, the payment terms and the reasons for non-fulfillment. If the specialist considers that the case is suitable for force majeure, the entrepreneur will be sent a set of documents to fill out. Consideration of the completed set takes up to 10 working days. The cost of the certificate is 13,500 rubles," Alexandra Lyavrik, head of the Omsk Region Export Support Center, shared the algorithm.
