Russian court seizes 306 undeclared headphones and chargers in smuggling case
A court in Khabarovsk has ordered the confiscation of 306 pairs of headphones and charging devices. The products, imported without proper declaration, lacked required Russian-language labels and EAEU conformity marks. The goods were smuggled into Russia and never formally declared. Their owner, a local businessman, failed to provide any documents proving their legal import. When questioned, he refused to claim the items and instead requested they be declared ownerless.
The Arbitration Court of Khabarovsk Krai ruled in favour of confiscation. At the request of Khabarovsk Customs, the seized electronics were transferred to federal ownership. The businessman had already relinquished all rights to the goods before the final decision. The headphones and chargers will now become state property. Their lack of proper labelling and certification made them illegal for sale in Russia. The ruling confirms the transfer of the goods to federal control.
