Ukraine and Albania have signed an agreement on international road transport, which provides for regular freight and passenger transportation, according to Deputy Prime Minister for Recovery and Minister of Community and Territorial Development Oleksiy Kuleba.
“In practice, this means more opportunities for exporting Ukrainian goods, simplifying operations for carriers, developing new transport routes through the countries of Southeast Europe, and improving transport accessibility for citizens of both countries,” Kuleba wrote on Telegram on Tuesday.
According to him, Albania has now become the 37th country with which Ukraine will have “transport visa-free travel.”
It is noted that the ministry is also continuing to work on expanding Ukraine’s international transport links and opening new markets for carriers.

Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Slovakia, Germany and Hungary have introduced permit-free travel for humanitarian cargo carriers to Ukraine, according to the Telegram channel of the Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine.
The matter concerns the release of carriers from any additional conditions, in particular the need to obtain permits for international freight traffic. This is necessary for the prompt delivery of humanitarian cargo during martial law.
To cross the border with Lithuania, Latvia and Slovakia, you do not need to submit information about the carrier and vehicle.
“We thank our European partners for their support. The Ministry of Infrastructure of Ukraine continues to work with foreign partners in order to speed up the process of transporting humanitarian cargo in an extremely difficult period for Ukraine,” the ministry stressed.
