The Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has received a message from Turkey stating that Bulgarian trucks will only be allowed to enter the country if they have the correct certification.

Bulgarian Foreign Affairs Ministry spokesman, Dragovest Goranov, said that the message warned that Turkish authorities will strictly require Bulgarian carriers to comply with the conditions included in the certificate of the European Conference of Ministers of Transport on trips to and from Turkey.

If trucks do not comply with the conditions, they will be suspended and will not be allowed to pass through Turkish territory. Strict monitoring of compliance with permit conditions will begin on August 15.

Goranov concluded that the Ministry would reply to the message as soon as possible and that he hoped the new regulations would not cause any problems for Bulgarian businesses.
