The article analyzes changes in the Russian criminal legislation on liability for illicit trafficking including the ones stipulated by the Agreement on the Customs Code of the Customs Union and the appearance of a single customs territory of the Customs Union within the EAEU taking into consideration the provisions of the ruling of the Plenum of the Supreme Code of the Russian Federation dated April 27, 2017 No. 12 On Judicial Practice in Cases on Illicit Trafficking. The author describes the reasons that have brought about the need to prepare clarifications on illicit trafficking cases at the level of the ruling of the Plenum of the Supreme Code of the Russian Federation; pays attention to the changes of the legal regulation of customs relations; sets out the approaches to the notion of illicit trafficking in a narrow and broad sense; gives clarifications as to the determination of the illicit trafficking object itself and its subjects; unfolds the content of the objective side of illicit trafficking; makes notice of the issues, which have not received due clarification yet and the answers thereto will be developed in course of law enforcement.
