Border Crossing Points

The endorsement and implementation of the Central Asia Regional Economic Cooperation (CAREC) Transport and Trade Facilitation Strategy in 2007 included the identification of six priority CAREC corridors where transport infrastructure investments and trade facilitation initiatives would be focused. The CAREC Corridor Performance Measuring and Monitoring (CPMM) mandate to identify causes of delays and unnecessary costs along the links and nodes of each CAREC corridor, including border-crossing points (BCPs) and intermediate stops, emphasizes monitoring BCPs where shipments undergo several transactions and procedures related to transborder trade.

Table A5 lists key BCP pairs for each side of the border.
