The agreement on fuel implementation was reached during Tajik President Emomali Rahmon's visit to Kazakhstan. The republic's Ministry of Energy has already provided for the possibility of shipping the specified volume, but commercial entities of the two states still need to coordinate logistics schemes and sale prices.
Restrictions on petroleum product exports
Alongside export supply plans, Kazakhstan has extended the ban on the export of several types of fuel. The corresponding order was signed on October 30.
Current restrictions apply to the export of gasoline and diesel fuel by road transport, including to Eurasian Economic Union countries, as well as the rail transport of several petroleum products. Exceptions are provided for humanitarian aid. For foreign citizens, the rule remains: exporting fuel in a vehicle's factory tank is permitted no more than once per day.
