Customs will record the IMEI of every smartphone at the border
The Economic Security Bureau is introducing automatic registration of mobile devices by IMEI code when crossing Ukraine's border. The state will record which device was brought in, when, and through which checkpoint.
The measure is aimed at combating electronics smuggling and sales without tax payment. According to Economic Security Bureau head Oleksandr Tsyvinskyi, this should bring the budget more than 5 billion UAH annually. The next step is integrating IMEIs into fiscal receipts.
