Kirghizia to thoroughly control the import of fuel, oil and lubricants from Kazakhstan

​Kirghizia strengthens the control over the import of fuel, oil and lubricants on the border with Kazakhstan.

Special groups will control the border and check the volumes of imports to the republic.

The control will be effected until November 11, 2015.

On October 9, 2015 the Government of Kirghizia said that after joining the EEU, the volume of counterfeit fuel, oil and lubricants import from Kazakhstan has sharply risen.

Kirghizia intends to introduce a number of restrictions for oil products imports, e.g. ban to carry over 20 liters of petrol/diesel fuel over the border.

Kirghizia extremely worries about the legal import and transit of fuel, oil and lubricants over its territory.

Kazakhstan also sticks to strict rules.

A hauling stock with fuel, oil and lubricants from Russia to Kirghizia stayed 1.5 years at the border.
