Balgarianovinite.com As of Monday, commercial vehicles weighing up to 3.5 tonnes will be allowed to cross the Kirklareli Derekoy–Malko Tarnovo border checkpoint between Bulgaria and Turkiye in both directions, according to a statement by the Turkish Trade Ministry, cited by the Anka news agency. Until now, freight vehicles have not been permitted to use the crossing.
The measure was agreed during talks between representatives of the Turkish Trade Ministry and Bulgaria’s National Customs Agency, held at the Kapitan Andreevo–Kapikule border checkpoint in July. The goods transported by these vehicles will be subject to customs procedures, the statement said.
The statement said the National Customs Agency had been notified of the new regulations governing the passage of light commercial vehicles. It added that transported goods must be presented to customs authorities under a transit procedure and properly secured with customs seals, while vehicles must have valid freight transport licences and the necessary permits for international transport.
The arrangement allows up to 500 light commercial vehicles to pass in each direction per week, or a maximum of 3,000 vehicles weekly.
The measure is expected to ease traffic and facilitate the movement of vehicles and goods through the Kapikule–Kapitan Andreevo and Hamzabeyli–Lesovo border crossings.
