“This service allows to store various cargoes and goods on the port territory without paying customs duties and registration for up to 3 years,” the report says. “Goods imported into the territory of Turkmenistan are stored under customs control without payment of customs duties, taxes, as well as prohibitions and restrictions of an economic nature established by the legislation of Turkmenistan.”
