Uzbekistan accedes to e-CMR

26 Oct 2020 · Prosperity, Innovation

Uzbekistan has become the 29th country to ratify the use of the digital consignment note, based on the UN¡¯s CMR Convention, for all national and international transports from and to the country.

This important step is in line with the joint call by the transport ministries of the Europe-Caucasus-Asia International Transport Corridor (TRACECA) and ÃÛÌÒ´«Ã½experts, to fully digitalise commercial road transport documents.

A double landlocked country, Uzbekistan will benefit from e-CMR to become more connected to its 13 neighbours in the TRACECA region, eight of which have already acceded to the e-CMR protocol.

"To reap the benefits of e-CMR, we encourage all the countries in the region to accede to and operationalise e-CMR through pilot projects. Trade is about being connected and this tool is what will get us there."
