Increased fees for Turkmenistan trucks

Effective next year, trucks from Turkmenistan will face higher entry charges based on their tonnage:

  • Vehicles between 10 and 20 tons: $180 (up from $100)
  • Vehicles over 20 tons: $250 (up from $150)

Variable fees for Azerbaijan and EU trucks

Fees for vehicles from Azerbaijan and EU countries will now vary depending on their duration of stay in Uzbekistan:

  • $80 for stays of 14 days or less
  • $280 for stays exceeding 14 days

Fees for other countries remain unchanged

Entry fees for trucks from other countries remain as follows:

  • Afghanistan: $50
  • Tajikistan: $100 to $200, depending on tonnage
  • Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan: $300

Bilateral agreements and digital integration

In October, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan’s transport authorities reached an agreement to establish parity and transparency in transport service charges. Starting in 2025, the fees for national carriers from both countries will be equalized.

Additionally, Uzbekistan plans to implement an electronic permit exchange system (E-Permit) with Turkmenistan. Similar systems are already operational for transport between Uzbekistan, Turkey, and Kazakhstan, aiming to streamline cross-border logistics and enhance efficiency.
