The Ministry of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure has announced that Ukraine and Turkey have extended the "transport visa-free regime". This means that permits are no longer required for freight and transit traffic.

The agreement also includes the possibility of empty trucks crossing the border without a permit. The relevant decision was recorded in the minutes of the meeting. In addition, the number of permits for freight transport to/from third countries was increased by one thousand to 3,500.

"I am grateful to my Turkish colleagues for constructive cooperation for the development of the economies of both countries. Continued liberalisation of freight transport is an example of decision-making based on figures and real indicators of positive impact on the bilateral transport market. Of all the exports we supply to Turkey, about 15% are delivered by road. Turkish companies import almost 60% of the total volume of goods to us by road," said Oleksandr Kubrakov, Vice Prime Minister for Recovery and Minister of Communities, Territories and Infrastructure.

The minister also noted that the "transport visa-free regime" with Turkey will remain in place at least until the end of the war.
