Ukraine and Norway agree on "transport visa-free regime"

The Ministry for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development signed a protocol with the Ministry of Transport of the Kingdom of Norway on the "transport visa-free regime".

This was reported by the press service of the Ministry for Communities, Territories and Infrastructure Development of Ukraine.

The simplified regime will enter into force on September 1 and will apply to both bilateral and transit traffic.

In order to use the regime, a carrier must have a certificate confirming the environmental class of the truck. 

At the same time, vehicles of a lower environmental class will still be able to carry out transportation. 

During the meeting of the Ukrainian-Norwegian Joint Commission, the parties agreed on the permits for next year.

Ukrainian carriers will be able to obtain 250 universal permits and 50 permits to/from third countries.
