Central Asia & CIS
Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Russia and neighbours: land freight options and destination-language labels.
Rail and road freight through Khorgos or Alashankou can beat sea transit by weeks, and the temperature risk profile is different: winter cold damages chocolate as reliably as summer heat.
What your market requires
- EAEU technical regulations: Russian-language label elements; the importer is usually the declarant

- Documents are often legalised/attested — build two weeks into the plan
- Mixed pallets are common here: gift boxes plus bars in one container

- Commercial invoice & packing list (RU label data supplied on request)
