Russian Federation
Declarations:
1) In respect of paragraph 1 of Article 8 of the Framework Agreement the Russian Federation declares that, in accordance with its national legislation, it considers the notion of “substantially equivalent level of reliability” as stipulating, inter alia, legal liability for a failure to comply with obligations arising in connection with the cross-border exchange of trade-related data and documents in electronic form;
2) The Russian Federation declares that it proceeds from the understanding of paragraph 2 of Article 12 of the Framework Agreement that “a self-assessment of their readiness” implies a self-assessment of own national legislation, and therefore the implementation schedule developed as a part of the action plan that is based on such an assessment cannot contradict national legislation.
