Chisinau, June 3 / MOLDPRES /- The National Motor Transport Agency (ANTA) has announced the receipt of an additional quota of one thousand authorizations for bilateral transport and transit of goods on the territory of Lithuania for 2022.

"The indicated quota has been included in the list of category III authorizations for the year 2022, in order to make rational use and ensure the efficient needs of the transport operators for a reasonable time. The decision was taken following the analysis of the use of authorizations by Moldovan transport operators ", ANTA said.

According to the institution, in 2021, the actual trained fleet that used the bilateral / transit Lithuania permits constitutes 247 trucks.
