BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan, November 29. Kyrgyzstan's
Ministry of Economy and Commerce, in collaboration with the State
Customs Service, will launch a pilot project for the implementation
of an electronic queue (e-queue) management system for freight
transport at the border with Uzbekistan on November 30, Trend reports via the
statement from Kyrgyz Ministry of Economy.
At the "Kyzyl-Kiya Road" checkpoint, we will introduce the
electronic system to improve logistics, speed up border crossing
procedures, and increase process transparency.
The innovation will allow truck drivers to book a time for
crossing the border in advance and arrive at the waiting area at
the designated time.
This solution will reduce waiting times, decrease congestion at
the border, improve transportation efficiency, and simplify trade
operations.
Kyrgyzstan's Deputy Minister of Economy and Commerce Iskender
Asylkulov emphasized that the introduction of the queue management
system is an important step in the development of transport
infrastructure, simplifying cross-border trade, and increasing
Kyrgyzstan's investment attractiveness.
According to the statement, for the successful implementation of
the project, training activities have been conducted, including
seminars for transport companies and practical training for drivers
at the checkpoint.
As part of the "Ready4Trade Central Asia: Path to Prosperity
through the Trans-Caspian Transport Corridor" project, Kyrgyzstan
is implementing the electronic queue system with technical support
from the International Trade Centre (ITC) (UN/WTO) and financing
from the European Union.
