“The Ministry of Industry and Trade has excluded from the list of goods allowed for import under the parallel import scheme (that is, without the permission of the copyright holder), the Japanese manufacturer of printers Kyocera due to the fact that the company has officially resumed the supply of its equipment to Russia,” the publication reports, citing a representative of the Ministry of Industry and Trade .
As noted, equipment under the Japanese brand was found on the websites of DNS, M.Video-Eldorado and Citylink.
As a representative of the Russian office of Kyocera told RBC, the company only "sells off the rest from the warehouse," while the supply of toner cartridges and spare parts for equipment to Russia did not stop.
According to the FCS, as part of parallel imports, about 2 million tons of goods worth $17 billion have been imported into Russia since May 2022.
