The Past Perfect tense in English is composed of two parts: the past tense of the verb to have (had) + the past participle of the main verb.
We use the past perfect to show that an action had already finished before something in the past:
He had written a letter before I came home
or by the moment in the past:
We had already planted a flower by eight o’clock yesterday

Unit 13. Customs urges cbr to liberalize currency cash flow through border
6.3. Translate the following newspaper article in the written form. Customs Urges cbr to Liberalize Currency Cash Flow Through Border
Russia's State Customs Committee urged the Central Bank of Russia (CBR) to allow the liberalization of foreign currency cash flow through the customs border. The committee planned to allow up to USD 10,000 in cash to be brought in and taken out of the country without declaration, as is the case in many other countries.
The new procedures are expected to simplify customs regulations and reduce violations of the law to minimum.
Russian citizens are now only allowed to take USD 1,500 in cash out of the country without declaring it, while special permission is needed for larger amounts. Meanwhile, foreigners can take out of Russia only the amount of foreign currency in cash they declared when entering the country.
The new Customs Code is expected to significantly simplify customs procedures in Russia.
