The National Chamber asked Kazakh businessmen for facts and information evidencing that the trucks carrying goods for Kazakh companies came to Russia before the order took effect and were stranded there.
The information will be submitted to the Finance Ministry’s State Revenue Committee so that a decision to let the trucks cross into Kazakhstan can be made via interdepartmental contacts between Kazakh and Russian customs authorities, it said.
