The Ministry of Transport of Uzbekistan and the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure of Turkey have begun steps to launch project for an electronic exchange of permit forms (E-permit).
At a meeting of the Uzbek-Turkish Joint Commission on International Road Transport, held in Tashkent in July this year, goals were set to implement measures and introduce a system of electronic (E-permit) exchange of permit forms between countries in order to expedite the process of freight traffic.
As part of the phase I introducing this e-system into practice, the Ministry of Transport of Uzbekistan, in agreement with the Turkish entity, for the first time organized a test car rally using the E-Permit system.
A convoy from Uzbekistan which departed on November 6 this year arrived in Turkey on November 10 through the Sarp checkpoint. The convoy was met by representatives of the Turkish Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, as well as representatives of the customs authority.
