January 10, Fineko/abc.az. Four packages of dried and fresh fruits were transported first by truck and then by plane from the airport of Tashkent to the airport of Baku, following the eTIR procedure and thus paving the way for a new, digital era of the TIR system.
ABC.AZ reports that the first electronic TIR (eTIR) transport in line with the Customs Convention on the International Transport of Goods under Cover of TIR Carnets (TIR Convention) has taken place between Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan, according to the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE).
The improvement of transport conditions is one of the important factors in development of cooperation between the countries of Central Asia and the Caucasus. The TIR project - a single transit permit - has become a real embodiment of this idea.
The TIR Convention was adopted under the auspices of the UNECE in 1975. The purpose of the Convention is to create a cargo transportation system that simplifies cargo clearance procedures when crossing borders.
This development crowns long-lasting efforts by UNECE’s TIR Secretariat to modernize international transport and transit in cooperation with the contracting parties to the TIR Convention and the private sector. The TIR Convention provides for an internationally recognized procedure to facilitate the cross-border transportation of goods in transit through the use of a standard, internationally recognized customs document – the TIR Carnet. However, with advances in technology, the use of the paper TIR Carnet has become increasingly archaic, especially when it comes to linking it to the electronic procedures applied by national customs administrations.
