TIR (Transports Internationaux Routiers)

TIR, or Transports Internationaux Routiers, is an international customs transit system designed to facilitate the movement of goods across borders. It allows trucks to transport cargo through multiple countries using a single customs declaration and a specific seal that protects the cargo. This system reduces delays at border crossings, simplifies paperwork, and helps ensure that duties and taxes are paid at the destination rather than at each border. TIR promotes efficient international trade by standardizing procedures for road transport, making it easier and faster for businesses to operate globally.
