On December 5, the Cabinet of Ministers approved a resolution introducing the eChezhda pilot project for booking border crossing times for another two years, L.B. reports, citing the Ministry of Communities and Territories Development.
“The new pilot project will focus on scaling the system for all types of vehicles, improving the issue of priority border crossing, and automatically verifying a range of information that the carrier must have,” the ministry explained.
Deputy Prime Minister for Reconstruction Oleksiy Kuleba added that the border crossing process is to be made predictable for all types of transport. “We are talking about both commercial carriers and citizens crossing the border by private transport – everyone should be sure that there will be no queues at the checkpoint. In addition, an important stage in the project’s development will be the installation of automatic fixation cameras at the entrance to the checkpoints to minimize the possibility of passage of vehicles not registered in the system,” Kuleba explained.
The new project plans to scale the service to all types of vehicles crossing the border (cars, trucks less than 7.5 tons), integrate with relevant systems to ensure priority in the queue in accordance with the Convention on Common Transit (T1), companies exporting goods under the TIR system or having the status of authorized economic operator, and ensure automatic verification of a number of information at the time of registration in the system, such as the availability of an insurance policy (green card).
