Abstract: This study is devoted to the analysis of factors that affect the elasticity of import to the non tariff measures (NTM) for Russian Federation in 1997-2007. Carrying out the detailed research allows to estimate the influence of nontariff restrictions. The results show that non tariff measures have valuable effect on import demand. Also ad valorem equivalents of the NTMs are calculated, i.e. for each 4 digit commodity group it is estimated the value of tariff rate that would cause the equivalent to non tariff measure import reduction. The author also arranged the database of NTM trade regulation in Russia in 1997 2007 which can be used for the further detailed estimations of qualitative consequences of NTM practice.
