Previously, seals were mandatorily placed only on trucks coming from Lithuania. At the same time, it is noted that the innovation will not affect trucks transiting through Lithuania and Poland from Kaliningrad to Russia, as well as heavy and (or) large-sized vehicles, the passage of which provides for a special permit.
In addition, the cost of seals was raised from 5 base rates (145 rubles) to 10 base rates (290 rubles).
According to the telegram channel » Belarusian Economy», navigation seals may well become a new source of income for the official Minsk. It is also worth noting that the beginning of the «sealing» of trucks was laid in June 2020, but then the rental price of the seal was 3 base rates, and cargos were sealed selectively.
