ASHGABAT, Turkmenistan, January 5.
Turkmenistan’s Ministry of Automobile Transport has begun accepting
applications for licenses to carry out road transport activities
starting January 5, 2026,
Trend reports via the ministry.


The move follows a presidential decree dated December 27, 2025,
approving a new Regulation on Licensing of Road Transport
Activities. The regulation is aimed at improving sectoral legal
frameworks and streamlining procedures for submitting license
applications by individuals and legal entities through
communication systems.


Under the new procedure, applications for licenses and the
required supporting documents can be submitted either by mail or
online. Applicants may send documents on an electronic CD by post,
with the date of delivery to the ministry considered the official
application date. Alternatively, scanned copies of documents can be
submitted electronically to the ministry’s designated email
address, with the date of confirmation of receipt regarded as the
application date. Original documents must be provided at the time
the license is issued.







The ministry will process applications at its headquarters in
Ashgabat, with designated hours for accepting applications and
issuing licenses.
