The Ministry of Transport has developed a new, improved mechanism for issuing foreign permit forms. The new mechanism eliminates the human factor and corruption risks.
A foreign permit form (IDB) is a document that allows carriers to travel abroad with cargo.
1. The entire process of reviewing an application for an IDB is fully automated, and the time frame for consideration and issuance has been significantly reduced. So, the carrier needs to fill out a request to receive an IBR through the E-license platform. The review period has been reduced from 2 working days to 40 minutes, and the issuance from 8 days to 1 day;
2. Previously, the system for issuing forms worked according to historical data — for example, taking into account the work of carriers last year or taking into account experience in international transportation. The new rules do not limit the history of transportation and how actively the car was used last year. That is, everyone who has the desire and the appropriate admission will be able to receive the form. This will create a more competitive environment among Kazakhstani carriers.
3. Now the name of the company and the license plate number of the car are indicated on the scarce forms.
4. Within the framework of the new mechanism, the recording of the facts of entry and exit of cars is carried out through the Berkut information system. First of all, this eliminates the prerequisites for the resale of the IDB in the shadow market.
5. It will be possible to travel abroad using a specific form within 30 days from the moment the notification of it arrives in the carrier's personal account. According to the old mechanism, this figure reached 100 days.
6. Payment was previously made in two ways: through second-tier banks or online, with a mandatory period of up to 5 working days. Now only online payment is provided, which must be completed within 40 minutes. Payment information will be received through the e-government payment gateway.
7. Currently, Kazakhstan is exchanging foreign permits with 42 countries. This year, a record exchange was made — 364,705 IDB.
