1. Ozone depleting substances - The Russian Federation manages its obligations for ozone depleting substances controlled by the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer through the List of Goods that are subject of import/export prohibitions or restrictions from the customs territory of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) in trade with third countries (Decision of the Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC) No 30 of 21.04.2015, as last amended on 13.12.2017, Annex 2.1). The import, export and manufacture of the ozone depleting substances is prohibited under the Montreal Protocol except where an essential or critical use exemption has been granted by the parties to the Montreal Protocol. The Russian Federation’s Montreal Protocol obligations are implemented through a system of licensing and quota restrictions on ozone depleting substances.
