Faroe Islands and Greenland, which are integral parts of the Danish Realm, are self-governing countries, that is why they were not included into the list of the countries from which Russia banned importing some kind of agricultural products in August 2014. Hence, since the sanctions were introduced, import from these territories increased, mainly this concerned fish and seafood.
According to the Russian customs statistics, export to Russia from the Faroe Islands in 2015 grew by 60.3% up to $277.2 million. 99.99% of deliveries from the Faroe Islands in the total volume of exported products in 2015 is fish and seafood.
