The reasons for the decline in the use of the Green Corridor system over the years have been explained, said Natig Shirinov, Deputy Chairman of the State Customs Committee (SCC), at the event “Customs-Business Forum 2025: Dialogue and Trust,” APA-Economics reports.
According to him, risk criteria have been approved by the SCC collegium: “Specific risk criteria have already been determined regarding entrepreneurs’ applications to the Green Corridor. If no risk is identified under all risk parameters, a document is issued to the entrepreneur regarding their Green Corridor participant status. However, if there is a risk in any parameter, the entrepreneur is fully transparently informed that they can reapply after making certain adjustments for those parameters. This matter has been sufficiently tightened within the legal framework, and such a framework has been established in a fully transparent manner for both the customs side and the entrepreneur side. In this sense, transparency has been raised to a higher level.”
“The level of use of the Green Corridor has not decreased because we do not want to give someone Green Corridor status or refuse it. Simply, fully transparent risk parameters have been determined in an open environment,” Natig Shirinov noted.
