KABUL (Pajhwok): The Pak-Afghan Joint Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PAJCCI) has suggested issuing special passes to truck drivers transporting goods between the two countries.
PAJCCI Coordinator Ziaul Haq Sarhadi said the suggestion would streamline and smoothen Pak-Afghan trade.
The trade between the two countries remained halted for 10 days over visa condition imposed by Pakistan on truck drivers, the Express Tribute reported.
“Around 1000 truck drivers will be issued special passes instead of visas for carrying their goods with ease between Pakistan and Afghanistan,” he added.
He stressed that these trucks should be registered with Customs and Transport Departments in Pakistan and Transport and Gumrak in Afghanistan.
The owners of heavy vehicles should also be charged a nominal fee for issuance of special pass, he added.
