The transfer of the management of public warehouses to the transport sector is awaiting government approval.
The Minister of Cooperatives, Labor and Welfare said in a conversation with Tasnim:
🔹 It was suggested that in light of its position in the logistics chain, the management of Iran's public warehouses and customs services would be transferred to the transportation sector.
🔹 Combining the management of entities operating in the same value chain can help speed up the unloading/loading of cargo and streamlining customs procedures in the country.
🔹 The matter was transferred to the Office of the Legal Presidency by the Audit Court for oversight purposes, so that a final opinion can be given on the legal requirements for this transfer. 🔸 According to Tasnim, two major concerns were raised regarding this transfer: a potential conflict between the obligations of the party receiving the cargo and the transport company, as well as the risk of creating challenges related to customs; This emphasizes the need to establish strong oversight mechanisms and systematic control.
