📌 Russian Coal Export Duty: Russia applies a variable export duty on coal, linked to global coal prices and the ruble exchange rate. For coking coal, the duty is typically 0-7%. For thermal coal, the duty ranges from 0-18% depending on the price formula. Russia also applies a freight tariff on railway transportation of coal to ports. Russian coal exports are primarily handled through Pacific ports (Vostochny, Nakhodka, Vanino, Posyet — for Asian markets) and Baltic ports (Ust-Luga, Vysotsk — for European markets).
Q1: Who are the largest coal exporters in Russia?
Russia's largest coal exporters include SUEK (AO SUEK — Siberian Coal Energy Company), Raspadskaya (largest coking coal producer), Kuzbassrazrezugol (open-pit mining specialist), Mechel Mining (coking coal for steel), SDS Ugol (Siberian operations), and Siberian Anthracite (premium anthracite).
Q2: What types of coal does Russia export?
Russia exports three main types: thermal coal (steam coal — HS 2701.12, ~65% of exports, for power generation), coking coal (metallurgical coal — HS 2701.11, ~25%, for steel production), and anthracite (HS 2701.19, ~10%, premium grade for industrial applications).
Q3: Where are Russia's coal mining regions located?
Russia's coal production is concentrated in Kuzbass (Kemerovo Oblast — ~60% of national output), Krasnoyarsk Krai, Khakassia, Sakhalin Island (Far East), Novosibirsk Oblast, and Zabaikalsky Krai. Kuzbass is the most important coal basin.
